TCCDM Pulls One Out..."Jack Scott" - Jack Scott (1958)
"Jack Scott" - Jack Scott (1958) The music is cool, and the cover pleases me to no end! Looking like Nicholas Cage from “Peggy Sue Got Married” and Kramer from the NY Fab Four... Jack Scott red sweaters the bejesus out of this photo. A Canadian rockabilly singer/songwriter, Scott was kind of a big deal once upon a time. At least in Canada and Detroit. Scott's vocals are not nearly as smooth as Elvis, not as polished, but this actually works in Scott's favor giving the album a coolie-cool cool that's real and often missing from other spins. There are 12 songs on this square, 9 originals, split between the faster rockabilly burners and semi-ballad tracks. I definitely enjoyed the faster tracks the best, but the ballads were by no means a chore. Adding to the cool factor just a smidge, this square includes the original Jack Scott penned "The Way I Walk" later recorded by The Cramps helping to give the album a sweet time-traveler vibe that
