Shake a hand...


Anyone out there have info on Jeannie Dee? The word amongst my friends is that there are only two singles, this one and another on Musicor which shares the same b-side. But I've also heard second hand that there are a couple of other 45's...no titles or labels were mentioned.

That's it, that's all I've got. Seems strange to me that there would be so little info available on someone with such a killer voice.

The song, "Shake A Hand", was an early R&B hit for Faye Adams. You can hear her original version here. It has, of course, been covered by numerous folks, including Elvis.

Enjoy....

  2. Hey Albert...That's excellent!

    So, there are four singles on four different labels, and an album on a fifth. I've actually seen the album before, but it never clicked that it was her. The record's not very highly thought of.

    Hah!, I was so sure there were only two singles I never bothered look on Gemm [how stupid of me]. The 45's on Beacon and Guess are both available for not much money.

    Thanks again...
