CRAZY-HORSE Wrote:BILLY BLAND "let the little girl dance" B/W "sweet thing" 1960
this is the only thing ive ever heard by Billy as far as i know...
but what an "A" side to know, an absolute classic IMO...
i like th "B" side also, im sure if i hear it a couple of more times i would love that also
single peaked at a respectable #3 in the UK
here's Billy's short Wiki: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Billy_Bland
I've always liked this tune, both theme and the rhythm change. Great sax too. Look at Mr. Unterberger's AMG bio link at the bottom of the Wiki for more on him and some links.
