Kevin Rowland & Dexys Midnight Runners ‎– Too-Rye-Ay

RARE/2HAND VINYL LP ON MERCURY 1982

Mercury 6359 097 made in EEC with original innersleeve.

Vinyl VG+. Cover VG+.

For one brief moment, Dexy's exploded into America's consciousness -- and what a song to do it with! "Come on Eileen" combines ramalama rock & roll, soul delivery, and Celtic/country flavor into a perfect musical fusion and an irresistible U.K. and U.S. number one hit. The rest of the album is nearly as successful, with quite a few numbers that should have matched "Come on Eileen"'s fame. Given that song's obvious debt to Van Morrison's similar fusions, it's no surprise that Dexy's tipped their hat with a great cover of Morrison's "Jackie Wilson Said," another big British single.
