Del Shannon

Title:

Runaway With Del Shannon

Tracklist: Misery, Day Dreams, His Latest Flame, The Prom, The Search, Runaway, I Wake Up Crying, Wide Wide World, I ll Always Love You, Lies, He Doesn t Care, Jody

One of the rarest early stereo rock-a-billy albums in existence.

There weren t too many really good rock roll albums released in America or anywhere else in 1961, and considering that Runaway With Del Shannon was slapped together to take advantage of the single Runaway s number one chart position, it comes off amazingly well. A handful of cuts off of this album, including Lies and Jody, frequently end up on anthologies of Shannon s work, but there is a bit more here to appreciate. The opening track, Misery, is a catchy Doc Pomus/Mort Shuman number that shows off Shannon in the same pained, romantic mode as Runaway, and Day Dreams and Marie s the Name His Latest Flame are similarly successful, though the latter song fared far better a few months later in the hands of Elvis Presley. Some of the rest is a good deal less appealing, especially when Shannon tries straight romantic crooning, as on The Search or I ll Always Love You. I Wake up Crying and especially Wide Wide World are successful album tracks, and the latter, at a somewhat quicker tempo, might even have made a good single. The stereo version of the album and the accompanying master was considered lost for many years and goes for large amounts of money.
