Jackie Deshannon - Early Singles 1956-1962

Jackie DeShannon was one of the most iconic and important singer/songwriters of the second half of the 20th Century. The first wholly comprehensive collection of her early recordings, this unique set features her first sixteen singles, recorded between 1956-62, during which she recorded as Sherry Lee, Jackie Dee and Jackie Shannon, before adopting her more familiar stage name in late 1959. Includes fans' favourites like 'Buddy', 'Just Another Lie', 'Trouble' and 'Baby (When Ya Kiss Me)', as well as her earliest US hits, 'The Prince', 'You Won't Forget Me' and 'Faded Love'. A handful of these sides are serious collectors' rarities, virtually impossible to find elsewhere on CD. Indeed, 'So Warm'/'Young Girl's Prayer' - a rare, cancelled 45rpm release from 1959 - hasnever been re-released previously, in any format. This compilation is a mandatory purchase for all serious Jackie de Shannon fans/collectors.
