Jody Reynolds' Classic Tearjerker

Jan 9, 12:11am Geezer Music Club
Jody Reynolds' Classic Tearjerker One of the mainstays of early rock and roll was the tearjerker song, especially the kind that spoke of a sadly departed lover. There were plenty of memorable ones around, including "Teen Angel" and "Tell Laura I Love Her," but one of the earliest - and best - was "Endless Sleep," a million-seller for Jody Reynolds in 1958. Reynolds was born in Colorado but raised in Oklahoma, where he grew up surrounded by country music and inspired by Western swing legend Bob Wills. By the time he reached adulthoo d in the early 1950s, he was a proficient [...]

Jean Dinning (1924-2011) and the Teen Coffin Song Genre

Mar 10, 2011, 11:40pm Noise Narcs: Say Yes to Music
Jean Dinning (1924-2011) and the Teen Coffin Song Genre Death has a very special place in American culture. America grew as a frontier nation in the constant shadow of death. Americans love dead heroes, from George Washington to Elvis Presley. Music and movie stars like Elvis, Marilyn Monroe, Jim Morrison, Hank Williams and Patsy Cline have made much more money since their deaths than during their lives. Even to make it onto an American postage stamp you have to be dead for at least ten years. Every October 31st, on Halloween, normal American children dress up as ghosts, mummies, ghouls and vampires and make a party out of death. [...]

The night was black

Mar 1, 2011, 11:29am Diddy Wah
The night was black mp3: Jody Reynolds - Endless Sleep mp3: Jody Reynolds - Tight Capris For anyone following this blog recently, this post was perhaps inevitable. I've previously blogged about a couple of Jody Reynolds records ( here and here ) and Endless Sleep was his first and biggest hit, resting for a few weeks in 1958 at #5 on the US charts. It's a song about a woman committing suicide, quite dark a subject matter to be so high up on the charts, then or now. The flip side is [...]

Fire Of Love

Jan 5, 2011, 11:49am Diddy Wah
Fire Of Love mp3: Jody Reynolds - Fire Of Love mp3: Jody Reynolds - Daisy Mae Now, this is a real treat. From way back in 1958, here's Jody Reynolds with two offerings that were released on Los Angeles' Demon Records. Daisy Mae is part and parcel of what you might expect from a rockabilly artist, a hiccuping tribute to his local sweetheart, but Fire Of Love is a number of shades darker in both sound and content. Is there an element of mystery in the lyrics, or is it just about vampires? [...]

Jody Reynolds, R.I.P. [Obituaries]

Nov 20, 2008, 8:53am Idolator
Rockabilly singer Ralph Joseph "Jody" Reynolds passed away as the result of a bout with liver cancer two weeks ago. Reynolds' No. 5 hit "Endless Sleep" was notable in that it was the first '50s pop hit to fall under the rubric of "teen tragedy tracks" that included "Teen Angel" and "Ebony Eyes"; Reynolds claimed that the dreamy, reverbed-out track was written after he'd listened to "Heartbreak Hotel" five times in a row. "Sleep" told the story of a young boy who was searching for his girlfriend after the two had a fight, and it was rejected by a bunch [...]

Best minds of my generation grab bag

Apr 4, 2008, 6:32am For The Sake Of The Song
Best minds of my generation grab bag It´s grab bag time again, so it must be Friday. What songs shook my musical foundations this week? Let´s see... Almost looks like we´ve got a death theme of sorts this time, with two mini-tributes to guys who died on April 5, one to a drummer who passed away only recently and a great teenage tragedy song on top of that. "I looked at the sea and it seemed to say, I took your baby from you away... I heard a voice cryin' in the deep, come join me, baby, in my endless sleep". Dive in! Meanwhile, I´m in the [...]
