Music for Hand-Jiving on London Records. A compilation of hits by Tommy Steele, The Blue Jeans and The Four Jacks, etc.
Hand-Jiving involves a complicated pattern of hand moves and claps including thigh slapping, cross-wrist slapping, fist pounding, chest slapping and pounding, hand clapping, elbow touching and hitch hike moves. It resembles a highly elaborate version of pat-a-cake. The hand jive was popularized by Johnny Otis’ 1958 hit “Willie and the Hand Jive”. Eric Clapton did a version of the song in 1974 that reached the Top 40.
This is one in a nice series of lps called “Sound Stories” which features races, racetracks, racers and cars around the world. This one is the 17th Monaco Grand Prix 1959. Beautiful art here.
12 side-splitting his by Hattie Noel and Billy Mitchell. Dootone Novelty Series. I don’t know Billy’s work, but I’d like to learn more based on this photo.
Stubby Kaye. “Music for Chubby Lovers” Seeco. Occasionally you’ll see — as I do now pulling records off the shelf to post here — how I used to insert myself into various cover scenes. This was pre-photoshop obviously.
“Come sit a spell” Joe Pelham’s Outhouse II (Sequel to “That Wonderful Old Two Holer”).
This was unearthed at a salvation army up in Maine. $.59 later here it is courtesy of Calvin, another lp cover lover: “Here is a cover called OUTHOUSE II. “The Shack is Back” more tales, poems, and songs about a classic rural-Maine subject.“
(Editors note: The Madonna in question here is the famous German film actress and sixties cover girl, Uschi Glas.)
