It's Great to Be a Broad

Since you are all apt pupils, you are surely ready now for more music by Ruth Wallis, and this album features some of her later work. The wordplay is clever and more than slightly wicked, and is a celebration about how great it is to be a broad......no, not overseas, but....never mind, you get it.

 

The Naughty Nightingale

Cabaret singer Reta Ray was known as the "Naughty Nightingale" for her saucy cabaret act, and her recordings on the Par-Dee label. The very generous Jim S. sent me these two Reta numbers, Can't Say No to a Man and Hot Rod. Thankee, Jim!

For more images and clippings, be sure to visit her daughter's site that shares a scrap book that Reta's momma kept of her career.

It's Naughty Party Time!

In response to some of the "saucy" music I've been posting lately, Mr. Zip Your Rip has been threatening to post some of his 60s party records for a while now....and he's made good on his promise. With such titles as "Mama's Well Has Gone Dry", "Where Can I Find A Cherry For My Banana Split?" and "Keep Your Knees Together Daughter" you can get a pretty good idea what's in store.

Whaddya think, Rip, do we need to start a blog devoted exclusively to sixties party records?
