Bikini With No Top On The Top

So What Else Is New?


1964

Mamie was joined on this record by June "The Bosom" Wilkinson and a third, uncredited glamour girl [Rachel Romen?] from Mamie and June's then-current potboiler, The Candidate.. Mamie claims the producer talked them info doffing their bullet bras and recording topless, which explains why the band sounds so sloppy and distracted.

Guitarist Billy Strange led the session, using Hal Blaine on drums, Steve Kreisman (Douglas) on sax, Ray Pohlman on bass, Al DeLory on organ, guitarists Bill Pitman and Al Casey, and Leon Russell as pianist.
