{"product_id":"cryin-shames-please-stay-cd","title":"Cryin Shames - Please Stay (CD)","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDetails: \u003c\/strong\u003eTwo CD set. The latest release from Joe Meek's legendary Tea Chest Tapes. Featuring numerous unreleased tracks. Liverpool beat band The Cryin' Shames left behind a slim legacy of just two singles before splitting but they gave producer Joe Meek his last Top 30 hit in 1966 with the magnificent, haunting, tearjerker, 'Please Stay' and freakbeat fans love the B side, 'What's News Pussycat', that sounds like the early Stones covering Dylan. Their second single combined another ballad 'Nobody Waved Goodbye' with the infectious beat of 'You', but now alongside the four single sides, many other recordings have been unearthed from the Tea Chest Tapes including alternative versions and works in progress but also many previously unissued tracks such as interpretations of The Marvelettes' 'I'll Keep Holding On', Marvin Gaye's 'No Good Without You Baby' and Them's 'Gloria'. Highlights abound with 'Let Me In' (also recorded by The Sorrows) and the previously unknown 'Breakout', particular stand outs. Offshoot band Paul And Ritchie And The Crying Shames formed by Charlie 'Paul' Crane and Ritchie Routledge (both formerly of The Cryin' Shames) are represented by both sides of their sole single, including freakbeat classic, 'Come On Back' and three tracks recorded for the BBC's Saturday Club. Five songs from The Cryin' Shames' impressive audition with Joe Meek (when they were still known as The Bumblies) that persuaded him to sign the band are also included. Plus two unreleased tracks by Cryin' Shames member Derek Cleary's band Friendly Persuasion. Bonus track 'Feels Like Loving' is believed to have been recorded by singer Charlie 'Paul' Crane with session musicians but planned as a Cryin' Shames release. Detailed notes are provided by the Joe Meek Society's Craig Newton and the booklet includes rare band photos and pictures of original tape boxes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlease Stay\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e What's News Pussycat (Extended Fade)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Nobody Waved Goodbye\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e You\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Paul ; Ritchie ; the Crying Shames - September in the Rain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Paul ; Ritchie ; the Crying Shames - Come on Back\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e She Belongs to Me (Audition)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Please Stay (Audition)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Gloria (Audition)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Mr. Tambourine Man (Audition)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Pain in My Heart (Audition)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e I'll Keep Holding on (Version 2)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Land of 1000 Dances\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Gloria\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e No Good Without You Baby\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e She Belongs to Me\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e My Girl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e With God on Our Side\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e As Tears Go By\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Only You\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Wanna Be Loved\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Take Me for a Little While\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e You're a Wonderful One\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Let Me in\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Breakout\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Feels Like Loving\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Please Stay (No Overdubs)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Please Stay (Overdubs Only Take 2)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Please Stay (Alternate Version)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e What's News Pussycat (Instrumental Take 3)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e What News Pussycat (Alternate Version)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Nobody Waved Goodbye (Alternative Arrangement Vocal Version Take 7)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Nobody Waved Goodbye (Alternate Arrangement Backing Track Take 3)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Nobody Waved Goodbye (No Overdubs)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Nobody Waved Goodbye (Overdubs Take 2)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e You (Take 2)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Let Me in (Phase 1 Take 2)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Let Me in (Phase 1 Take 3)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Let Me in (Overdubs Take 2)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Breakout (Backing Track Plus Guide Vocal)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Paul ; Ritchie ; the Crying Shames - September in the Rain (Alternate Version)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Come on Back Take 8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Come on Back (Alternate Vocal)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e I'll Keep Holding on (Version 1)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Friendly Persuasion (Featuring Derek Cleary) - the End of the World\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Friendly Persuasion (Featuring Derek Cleary) - Come on\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Paul ; Ritchie ; the Crying Shames - Circles (BBC Saturday Club 13\/09\/1966) 22 Paul ; Ritchie ; the Crying Shames - Shake (BBC Saturday Club 13\/09\/1966) 23 Paul ; Ritchie ; the Crying Shames -\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e September in the Rain (BBC Saturday Club 13\/09\/1966)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Please Stay (Live in France May 1966)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Gloria (Live in France May 1966)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50522175471890,"sku":"5013929791138","price":16.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/cryin-shames-please-stay-cd","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
