Cliff Richard ORIG OZ LP 32 minutes and 17 seconds EX ’62 Columbia OSX6133 MONO
Cliff Richard
32 minutes and 17 seconds
Original OZ LP released in 1962 on the Blue & Black Columbia Label. Cat: OSX6133. This album is in MONO.
When 1962 dawned, Cliff Richard was the biggest pop star Britain had ever known. By the time it ended, he was all but washed up, trampled beneath the stamping feet of Beatlemania. But did he even raise an eyebrow in concern? Did he, hell. The generation gap may have built a bridge right over him, but Richard wasn't slowing down for anyone. His last album was titled for its release date. His latest was named for its running time. Such brevity would scarcely be considered a selling point today, but still Richard's final release before Brian Epstein rewrote the rock & roll rule book, offers considerable value for money. Excellent versions of skiffle king Chas McDevitt's "How Long Is Forever" and Sid Tepper's "I'm on My Way" rank among his strongest ballad performances in some time, while another Tepper effort, "I'm Walking the Blues," could easily be "Travellin' Light" revisited, so closely (and knowingly) do voice and instrumentation ape that earlier hit. He brings an excellent new voice to "Spanish Harlem" only months after Ben E. King scored his original hit version, while "Let's Make a Memory" steps out of the same kind of arrangements which stirred the soundtrack to The Young Ones, only without the mawkishness which marred that production.
Tracks: It’ll be me/ So I’ve been told/ How long is forever/ I’m walkin’ the blues/ Turn around/ Blueberry hill/ Let’s make a memory/ When my dream boat comes home/ I’m on my way/ Spanish harlem/ You don’t know/ Falling in love with love/ Who are we to say/ I wake up cryin’.
