Description

Robin Ward "Wonderful Summer" Dot LP #25555 1963 aka Jackie Ward. Record has some super light surface scratches but plays and sounds great. Labels are unmarked. Cover has light edge wear, corner wear, ring wear and age browning.
In 1963, songwriter-producer Perry Botkin Jr. needed a session singer to make a demo recording of "Wonderful Summer". Botkin may have been looking for a Lesley Gore sound-alike, and he found her in Jackie. A now-married Ward agreed to record it. After an experiment in which Botkin sped up the recording by wrapping splicing tape around the capstan of the recorder, he and Ward agreed that the finished recording (with bird and surf sound effects added) would not be just a demo but a recording to be released as a 45 revolutions-per-minute single.The "altered" recording resulted in the then 21-year-old woman sounding like a high school girl; so Ward suggested changing her first name on the record label to that of her daughter, Robin.
