Jailhouse Rock


Eli Whitney
 
 
Promenade
1957

One of the many budget labels operated by the Synthetics Plastics Company (or SPC) of Newark, New Jersey 
 
Eli Whitney, whoever he really is,  wasn't the most prolific name used on the label.  I've found only four titles performed by this pseudonymous artist, whose name was obviously devised to cover the Elvis Presley hits of the day.

The three others are Wear My Ring (58),  I Got Stung (58) and I Need Your Love Tonight (59).

    Also released as by Dusty Glass on Tops, as far as I can remember.

      Yes Mellow, you may be well right. The Promenade version seems to be shorter

      Yes, that was also my thought while listening to it.
