Big Rocker (Lennie Lacour): Rock 'n' Roll Romance - Rockin' Rosalie (2x7inch, 45RPM, BC, PS)

Dear customers/Rock'n'Roll friends,

unfortunately a mistake happened when transferring the tapes and instead of the Flexi-Disc 'Academy' recording from 1956 the 'Lucky Four' version from 1961 was used on the pressing.
We have now included the correct version as a one-sided single in the original look (small center hole).
The collector now has 3 ingenious rockers by Lennie Lacour in one set!

LIMITED EDITION

Numbered edition, limited to 500 copies!

• Lennie LaCour’s one-sided cardboard seven-inch 78 rpm pressing of Rock-N-Roll Romance.

• Originally released in 1956, powerful Rock ‘n’ Roll from the Chicago area.

• Originally attached to six-packs of Orange Crush soda pop.

• Extremely rare original! Collectors will pay more than $1,000 for an original copy.

• Limited to 500 copies worldwide.

Only one ‘50s rocker made his debut single as a tie-in with Orange Crush soda pop. Lennie LaCour’s one-sided cardboard seven-inch 78 rpm pressing of Rock-N-Roll Romance came attached to six-packs of the carbonated beverage in 1956, causing quite a sensation around Chicago and surrounding regions. LaCour waxed another jackhammer blazer, Rockin’ Rosalie, as a separate platter on Chicago’s Academy imprint.

The super-rare original Rock-N-Roll Romance from that long-ago soda pop freebie 78 graces one side of this delightful single, backed with Lennie’s Academy release Rockin’ Rosalie—rendering it a virtual greatest hits 45. So pop open a cold Orange Crush and prepare to hit the dance floor—Lennie LaCour’s rocking the house!

Numbered edition, limited to 500 copies!

Big Rocker aka Lennie Lacour

Born outside of Natchitoches, Louisiana and largely of French Creole descent, LaCour developed into a multi-faceted entity: singer, songwriter, and eventually producer and label owner. Lennie migrated up to Chicago and sang with Al Peterson’s orchestra before winning a contest to sing a rock and roll jingle for Orange Crush, and he was off and running.

After his Academy stint was over, LaCour was advised by Leonard Chess to launch his own label, so he formed the Lucky Four logo, issuing No Privacy under his own name and then as The Big Rocker in 1961. Relocating to Milwaukee, Wisconsin, Lennie established another imprint, Magic Touch, that released seminal soul singles by Harvey Scales & The 7 Sounds led by their killer ’67 two-sider Get Down b/w Love Itis. The maverick producer continued to record right into the 21st Century.
