Comments and Reviews


Scratchy45 3rd Jul 2017		For "bama lama" or "gama lama"* it seems to be a case of the song remaining more or less the same but in different versions corresponding to the different titles. Track B5 here features a prominent backing vocalist and an organ backing (think of Chris Montez's "let's dance" for a similar organ tone). There is no "party" intro before the music begins, or honking sax. I'm pretty sure this must be what Pye released as a B-side to "She's Alright" as found here on 45cat. * both titles seem to have been released with one or more spelling variations.



Scratchy45 30th Jun 2017		Some cover/label photos from a slightly grubby copy added. Gama Lama confirmed on both sleeve and label. Pye's responsibility? I'll give it (and the rest) a listen.



ppint. 2nd Jan 2015		track B5 may be a tyop - or a pye records' mistake - for "bama lama" - or "bamalama", as one of otis redding's early (and rather poor) tracks was "shout bamalama", recorded as by otis redding and the pinetoppers, for & released by the merkin confederate label, re-released by the orbit label (both 1962), bethlehem records (1964) and sue uk (1965). track B1: the original single's credit, by "the shooters featuring jackie", suggest otis mayn't in fact be the vocalist on "tuff enuff", but it's a confused story with at least three variations/versions of the pre-(stax) volt recording life of otis redding. the track was the flip-side to: track A2: "she's alright" by "the shooters featuring otis" (no mention of his surname on trans-world (la)'s "she's all right" T 6908 (10/60)). track A1: "gettin' hip", is presumably from the same source - the trans-world (la) & finer arts labels then owned by morris (or morey?) bernstein - but 45cat knows not of a single attributed to "the shooters featuring otis" - or jackie - yet. trans-world's T 7003, "she's alright" b/w "i'm gettin' hip" (1961) by troy walker, however, shows they were aware of the song, and gives composer credit for it to otis' composer-collaborator for "she's all right", james mceachin.
