Joey Heatherton Album
Rare & Collectible Vinyl Records

Sealed 1972 Original With The Rare Song Hype Sticker On The Shrink Wrap. “Rat Pack-Era Sex Kitten Joey Heatherton -- Daughter Of "Merry Mailman" Actor/Singer Ray Heatherton -- Was Predominantly Known For Her Vegas-Style Stage Act. However, She Became A Media Fixture In The Mid-'60s With Numerous TV Appearances Ranging From The Teen/Dance Program Hullabaloo To Being A Permanent Fixture On Bob Hope's Variety Specials And Overseas All-Star Tours Of Duty Entertaining American Troops. Perhaps Taking A Page From Cohorts Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis Jr., And Dean Martin, This Long-Player Consists Primarily Of Familiar Pop Standards. Heatherton's Reading Of The Gershwin Classic "Someone To Watch Over Me" -- Which Concluded The Original Ten-Song Platter -- Is Especially Irresistible. Equally Impressive Are Comparatively Modern Compositions Including Brian Wilson's Pet Sounds (1966) Era Entry "God Only Knows" As Well As Barry Mann/Cynthia Weil's "It's Not Easy," A Criminally Disregarded Number Cut By Both Sandy Posey And Neil Macarthur........” Lindsay Planer, AMG.
