Title: PLEASE DON'T TOUCH
Artist: JOHNNY KIDD/THE FIVE NUTTERS
Description: 2015 UK Moochin About 4-track 7" vinyl EP in numbered sleeve.
***STILL FACTORY SEALED***
7" record released here for the first time ever, influential U.K singer
songwriter Johnny Kidd s unissued 1957 demo recordings with his skiffle
band The Five Nutters... Taken from the only existing source, this is
the very first time Freddie Heath glorious gravelly vocals were ever
recorded... Stored away for many years, these recordings have never seen
the light of day, until now... Although The Five Nutters only lasted 1
year, these rare, priceless recordings are essential to any Johnny Kidd
& The Pirates fan and to the history of Rock & Roll... Along
side these 2 historic recordings, on a limited 7 (MOOCHIN13), is Johnny
Kidd s debut single, Please Don t Touch and the then B-side Growl ,
which reached number 25 in 1959 on the UK singles chart... Although
Johnny Kidd s career was cut short by his untimely death in 1966, when
he was killed in a car crash in Radcliffe, Lancashire, his legacy lived
on influencing and shaping the UK Rock & Roll scene... His number
one hit Shakin All Over has been covered many times by artists such as
Led Zeppelin, Adam Ant, Billy Idol, Iggy Pop, MC5, The Ramones and
featured famously on The Who s Live at Leeds album... Sleeve notes for
these priceless recordings, have been written by another legendary
musician and huge Johnny Kidd fan, Guitarist Boz Boorer
(Polecats/Morrissey)
