Jeannie and the Big Guys – ‘I Want You’ / ‘Sticks and Stones’ – Picadilly 7N 35164 (UK)
Why this extraordinary group didn’t hit the big time is anybody’s guess. Fronted by the great Rita “Jeannie” Hughes, this great group from Chester, south of Liverpool, consisted of guitarist Peter Johnson, keyboard player Phil Blackman, Owen Ricketts on bass, and Terry Lynch on drums (some sources name Geoff Dawson on rhythm guitar, a member of an earlier incarnation of the group). In any case, their two ultra fabulous singles deserved to have been big hits! This is their second, released in 1964. As Cindy Cole, Rita Hughes went on the cut two great solo singles for EMI’s Columbia label, the first a wonderful version of the Crystals’ ‘He’s Sure The Boy I Love’. Sadly, Rita passed away in 1988. Don’t miss Jeannie and the Big Guys’ first single, ‘Don’t Lie To Me’, also at auction this week. That one may be rarer, but ‘I Want You’ has the edge, I think...
Condition: Visually VG+ or thereabouts; listening to it, I can’t really fault it, the record plays splendidly (please listen to the clips). The four-pronged centre has been removed. Clean labels though with tiny tears where the centre used to be (please see scans).
Please send payment via Paypal within five days. Will not be held responsible for uninsured parcels.
Shipping 1-2 singles: US $8.00 to addresses within Europe, US $10.00 to the rest of the world. Shipping 3-5 singles: $13.00 within Europe, $15.00 to the rest of the world. Registered and insured shipping (with a tracking number) is an additional US $11.00 per parcel to cover a total value not exceeding $80.00. The surcharge is US $16.00 for a total value of up to $1,550.00 (which is the maximum). Please get in touch for further combined shipping rates.
Shipping from Sweden is expensive – though the rest of the world is surely catching up – not least due to the fact that the weight increments are few and far apart, but it’s usually swift and safe.
American bidders, kindly note that shipping to the US is not US $4.00; this is eBay’s default setting and not applicable as I am based in Sweden. Please use the postage rates above, or wait for my invoice. Thank you!
