ROCKOLLECTIONS: BRENDA LEE PT.2 END

I will continue with Brenda Lee- and she has the bona fides, she is in the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame.
But it took her 11 years to get in, the longest time for any artist to make it.
And further indication of the R&R Hall Of Fame’s virtually meaningless existence.
Last chapter, I forewarned men to have a recording device ready.
Right off the bat, it will be time to use it.
And all in good fun, lol!
It’s Brenda’s signature song and hit # 1.
Followed by the earliest song I could find by her, from 1956, a phone number missing a number!
I’ll flip back and forth in this episode with that rough voice of her’s and some ballads- Number one’s and Top Ten songs.
In the early 60’s over in England, her opening act was a then little-known Liverpool group, the Beatles.
They went on to considerable fame also!
For some reason, Brenda Lee was always much more popular in the UK, even having a couple of Top Ten hits there that weren’t even released as singles here in the U.S.
She could rock, sing ballads and combined sexiness with innocence.
It’s a shame Brenda Lee is not better remembered.
But you may be surprised to know she has been mentioned in SONGS, by Chuck Berry, Burton Cummings…even Golden Earring’s Radar Love!
Last week we ran late, this time we had a little bit of time left over.
Not enough for a song, but enough to hear me try to smoothly stretch it to the end, LOL!
Hope you will hold Brenda Lee in higher regard now that you’ve gotten to hear what she could do.

Mike
