PJ Proby sings Sharon Sheeley´s Other side of town

[TL250Rider]

What a great Song Writer She was so fantastic

Thank you Sharon.

This is one great song and the other side of this 45 is just as good. I have thousands of 45's but I cannot think of another 45 release that had two sides that were so exceptional.

Sharon't first song, Poor Little Fool, Rick Nelson's #1 hit, was written about her relationship with Don Everly. It was written after Don's brother, Phil Everly, told Sharon that Don was married. Sometimes, something creative comes from what is a heartache at the time. She was such a talent in her own right with many songs to her credit.

Holy Moley! Look at that line-up of studio aces! Yes, as a huge Jackie DeShannon fan, I am aware of the importance of Sharon Sheeley. All these great underrated artists. Thank goodness there are compilations available. That particular L.A. coterie, one of many -- Jackie DeShannon, PJ Proby, David Gates, Jack Nitzsche, Sonny Bono, Sharon Sheeley, it just boggles the mind.

Hard to believe Sharon Sheeley's been gone since 2002, passing at age 62. Besides Poor Little Fool, she and De Shannon wrote The Great Imposter for The Fleetwoods and Dum Dum for Brenda Lee. She was also married for 5 years to the TV emcee of ABC's Shindig, Jimmy O'Neill. Poor Little Fool was written by Sharon after her break-up with Don Everly.
