HERE'S A CHANCE TO PICK UP ONE OF THE RARER ROCKIN' EVERLY BROTHERS UK 78s
A cover of Ray Charles' classic
" THIS LITTLE GIRL OF MINE "
b/w SHOULD WE TELL HIM
"This Little Girl of Mine" is a rhythm and blues single written and released as a single by Ray Charles in 1956 in the US on the Atlantic label.
Much like the previous "I Got a Woman" and the later "Hallelujah I Love Her So", "This Little Girl of Mine" played off a classic gospel-based hymn. And much like those songs, replaced sacred lyrics with secular blues lyrics with doo-wop call and response harmonies.
The song was the B-side to Charles' number-one R&B single, "A Fool for You", and was a charted US R&B hit on its own, peaking at number nine on the chart.
he tune was re-made for white audiences and made it into the US top 40 pop charts in 1958 by The Everly Brothers. but it failed to make any impression on the UK charts at all.
