I'm Starryeyed


Ann Caudell

I'm Starryeyed
(Ann Caudell, Lyn Lou BMI)

Quick Records
3191 N. Watkins
(Memphis, Tennessee)

Subs. of Carroll Records, Inc.

1963?


The B-side (Longing For You) is readily available on the net, including a tampered speeded up version.

As it's almost always the case, the fellows YouTube "do-wop/northern-soul/and whatever " stakhanovists have choosen to spread the worst side on which Ann is backed by an horrendous and omnipresent Hammond organ.

The best side is certainly "I'm Starryeyed" on which you'll feel Miss Ann's breath.

Annette (Ann) Caudell wrote both sides of her record. the BMI database shows a third song : "Raindrops keep Fallin" a song she co-wrote with John Hinson And Leonard Varah.

This is the second record on the tiny Quick label (first was Sonny Lavelle).
