Lillian Briggs: Diddy Boppers - Juke Box Pearls (CD)

1-CD Digipak with 36-page booklet, 32 tracks. Total playing approx. 77 min.

With Lillian Briggs, the 'Juke Box Pearls' CD series on Bear Family Records® brings a brilliant but little-appreciated artist into the limelight.
32 songs from 1955 to 1961, located somewhere between pop and rock'n'roll.
Mostly up-tempo numbers plus magnificently arranged pop, rarities and hits - including Diddy Boppers and three different versions of the classic I Want You To Be My Baby and two rare, previously unreleased recordings by the Lillian Briggs Orchestra.
The 36-page color booklet includes a biography written by renowned music journalist Bill Dahl and many rare photos and memorabilia!

A retrospective of Lillian Briggs' career

This CD compilation of 32 songs occasionally deviates from the chronological order and describes the career of a unique singer who also played the trombone.

Starting with instrumental recordings of the Lillian Briggs Orchestra from the mid-50s - after Alan Freed discovered her - through rhythm & blues sounds and rock 'n' roll in her recordings for the Epic label and various other record companies to pop arrangements, jazz standards and twists of the later years: 'Diddy Boppers' presents the great stylistic diversity of a unique female singer.

Diddy Boppers

All of Lillian Briggs' hits are included, such as the CD title track Diddy Boppers. Perhaps many will remember I Want You To Be My Baby, which was recorded at the same time by Georgia Gibbs and is offered here in three different versions; as an instrumental version by the Lillian Briggs Orchestra, then in her best-known arrangement as a rhythm & blues heavy dance number and finally as a twist version from 1961.

Her cover versions of Eddie My Love, Hey! Ba-Ba-Re-Bop, Rag Mop and the great Be Mine are also on this CD.

A rousing album, not just for nostalgic fans and collectors. If you love expressive female singers, Lillian Briggs is the right choice!

The CD comes with a 36-page color booklet with a Lillian Briggs biography by the renowned Chicago music journalist Bill Dahl, and many rare photos and illustrations!
