Description
A REALLY EXCELLENT COPY OF THIS GREAT ROCK-A-BILLY 78 FROM GERRY GRANAHAN
NO CHEMISE PLEASE b/w GIRL OF MY DREAMS
Gerry Granahan (b. June 17, 1939, Pittston, Pennsylvania) is an American singer, songwriter, and record producer, best known for his work in the 1950s and 1960s.
Granahan worked at WPTS in Pittston as a radio announcer and disc jockey in his youth. His Elvis Presley-like voice got him a job recording demos of songs submitted to Presley. Granahan was offered a contract with Atlantic Records in 1957 as a rockabilly artist under the name Jerry Grant, but his release sank without a trace, and another release shortly after on Mark Records was also a flop.
In 1958 Granahan teamed with publisher Tommy Volando on Sunbeam Records, and recorded the single "No Chemise Please". The song became a nationwide hit in the U.S., peaking at #23 on the Billboard Hot 100.
In the UK No Chemise Please was released under his real name, but it failed to chart here and this is a very hard record to find.
