'EEH EEH AAH!' - Can you guess what song that line is from? Yup, that's right, the incomparable Egyptian Shumba! Released in -63 it failed to chart, but has since become a cult favorite. The Tammys were three girls who by chance got to be Lou Christie's background singers for a while, but none of their singles lifted of the ground and the group decided to call it quits.
Here are all songs they recorded that was made avaible on CD for the first time on Lou Christie Egyptian Shumba: The Singles and Rare Recordings 1962-1964, which I believe now to be out of print.
Take Back Your Ring/Part Of Growing Up 1963 United Artists 632
Egyptian Shumba/What's So Sweet About Sweet Sixteen 1963 United artists 678
Hold Back The Light Of Dawn/Gypsy 1965 Veep 1210
Blue Sixteen/His Actions Speak Louder Than Words 1965 Veep 1220
+ Egyptian Shumba (alternate version)
Thank You!
