GUEST,Kay, Guest Tune: Cigarettes and Whisky and Wild Wild Women (60* d) RE: Tune: Cigarettes and Whisky and Wild Wild Women 31 Oct 06


Like Charles in Thread #65097, I had the same 78 with the Red Engel version. What I loved about it as a 5 year old in 1949 was that it was wild! With all the rough singing and drunks calling out insults, it sounded like it was coming direct from a saloon. I loved it much more than the songs in my Al Jolson album. With my blonde dutch girl haircut, frilly dress and black patent leather shoes, I called friends on my toy telephone to tell them to listen, banged on my tea set in time, and bellowed along with the guys with utter conviction. Must have been quite a sight. Is there any way to get this version now?
