Description

The Original EPIC Release! From DAMITA JO... the "If You Go Away" album! What a find! The EPIC record number is: #BN 26244. The vinyl is in VG++ condition with very little scuffing or scratching (test played on a B&O turntable with a very light setting). A great play that you will be thrilled with! The cover is in exceptionally nice condition with no splits or heavy edge wear... it has a very light touch of ringwear which is more from storage than handling. There is no writing on this beautiful cover. A very hard to find album and a great play! You will be pleased to add this to your collection!

Biography

Damita Jo (b. Damita Jo DuBlanc) is best remembered for her answer songs, "I'll Save The Last Dance For You" (1960, in answer to the Drifters' "Save The Last Dance For Me") and "I'll Be There" (1961, in answer to Ben E. King's "Stand By Me"). These songs are exceptional in that they were both Top 40 hits, which is rare for answer songs. Damita Jo was a featured singer with Steve Gibson and the Red Caps and a regular on Redd Foxx's TV variety show. Damita also recorded 'I Had Someone Else Before I Had You' and 'I'll Get Along Somehow'. Her 1961 single 'I'll Be There' reached number 12 on the pop charts and was a number 15 R & B hit. She passed away on Christmas Day in 1998 following a respiratory illness. In 2004, the singer Janet Jackson named her latest album after Damita, stating, 'Damita Jo is one of the characters that lives inside of me'.
