Lex Leander 12th Apr 2020		78 RPM Cynthia Lanigan - Jamie Boy / Silent Lips (1957)	Review My copy of this disc is a one-sided demo , just " Silent Lips " . This song was a minor U.S. hit ( no. 68 ) for Georgia Gibbs in 1957 , and Lanigan's take on it is quite similar , 'though I prefer it because her vocal is more spirited than Gibbs' and the arrangement by Ron Goodwin is more interesting. " Silent Lips " is a catchy and tuneful up-tempo number , but unfortunately it failed to chart for Cynthia Lanigan. I know little about this English singer Cynthia Lanigan ( a.k.a. Lanagan ), apart from the fact that she performed occasionally on the radio. On the evidence of " Silent Lips " , she is clearly an accomplished singer with a clear voice and excellent phrasing , but unfortunately after the failure of this single and her previous single also on Parlophone she vanished off the radar. 26 people found this review helpful. ✔︎ Helpful Review?
