Various - Purple People Eater
Review by fajor alotaibi
Purple People Eater is an album that features various artists and their renditions of the classic novelty song of the same name. The album is a fun and playful tribute to the catchy tune, which has been a staple in pop culture for decades.
The album is a mixed bag, with each artist bringing their own unique style and interpretation to the song. Some tracks are more faithful to the original, while others take creative liberties with the melody and lyrics.
One standout track is the version by Sheb Wooley, the original performer of the Purple People Eater song. His rendition is a nostalgic throwback to the 1950s, complete with a rockabilly sound and playful lyrics.
Other notable tracks include the jazzy rendition by Joe Loss and His Orchestra, the funky disco version by Disco Tex and the Sex-O-Lettes, and the psychedelic rock take by The Electric Prunes.

Notes
- Both songs are on the one side of record. The reverse side has some song information but was mainly for people to write 'To' and 'From' info in when giving this as a gift. This two songs were also released on a Bell Records EP (BE180) with 2 other songs on the flip side. (Jennie Lee by The Four Speeds & Rumble by Jimmy Carroll)
