Skeeter Davis - Let Me Get Close To You (Expanded) (CD)

Skeeter Davis's classic 1964 album Let Me Get Close To You bridged the gap between Countrypolitan and state-of-the-art Sixties Girl Pop. This package expands on the original album with 13 bonus tracks, including several making their CD debut and one previously unreleased. The original album boasted three Top 20 Billboard Country hit singles, including the pop crossover smash 'I Can't Stay Mad At You.' Featured among the extra tracks here are a further four Top 40 singles, including Skeeter's signature hit 'The End Of The World.' Sixties Pop aficionados will note the appearance of several songs penned by Brill Building scene alumni Gerry Goffin and Carole King. This reissue marks the album's first CD release outside Japan. All songs appear in stereo and have been sourced.
