"Shout" (Lulu) #94 8/8/1964 Bonus

The first American release from the summer of 1964 for the Scottish-born Marie McDonald McLaughlin Lawrie, better known as Lulu. She was 15 when her version of this Isley Brothers tune made it into the British Top 10, billed as Lulu and the Luvvers. She was quite successful in the UK, even hosting several TV series, but wouldn't break through in the States until 1967. Later, she was married for several years to Maurice Gibb of the Bee Gees. And yes, she was a mentor on "American Idol" in 2007.
