Gayla Peevey " Got A Cold In The Node For Christmas "

[Cherbo3]

Thank you so much for posting this! What a blast from my past! My sisters and I had these records as kids growing up in the 60's. We also had 'I Wand a Hippopotamus for Christmas' and 'Are My Ears on Straight?.

Was this considered cute back then? It's just creepy now.

[mezskr4]

@Sheldonwh I think that it would be classified as a Novelty song today,but it is just a fun one to me.

I wish someone would put "Too Young To Have a Broken Heart," which Gayla recorded at about age 13 or 14.

[mezskr4]

Working on it.You should be notified as soon as I get it up.I'm still trying to tract down the month of recording date,which should shed some lite on her age at the time.

[everokie]

Thank you for the reply. I remember during the summer of 1957, Gayla appeared at the Oklahoma Semi-Centennial celebration, and "Too Young To Have a Broken Heart" was her newest record so she was probably 14.

The song that you requested my friend is now up.Please enjoy.Roy

I sure wish I had known about all these songs she sang. I would have loved to have played them for my granddaughter when she was little. I certainly will play them for my great-granddaughter when she arrives in this world in Feb. 2010.

Thank you again mezskr4 for these wonderful songs. :)

Thank you and I agree.

Lana Zavaroni and Gayla Peevey would be at the top of the, "Children's Singers' Hall Of Fame. Both also were very good singers as adults.

[mezskr4]

Well I know who Lena is and heard her songs, but I don't think Lena compairs to Gayla as far as the childrens songs.There style's were too different...

[katrinadunn]

I'm going to have to agree... I didn't like Lena at all, she mostly just yelled/talk sang, and I like pure beautiful voices. Gayla Peevey was an amazing singer as a child.

[mezskr4]

Maybe the needle is bad.I'm glad that it brought you pleasure and good memories.Since the released some of Jimmy Boyds songs on Cd they will someday release her columbia recordings.

Oops, I said Gloria... I meant Gayla Peevey (I have always had a problem saying "Gloria"... "Gayla" is an odd name to me).

[antmusic]

Thank you for posting this. I have all my mother's old "unbreakable" Jimmy Boyd and Gloria Peevey records and I used to listen to them all the time when I was little. Now my record player just "skims" everything without playing anything. Thanks to you I can share this with my child.
