from the "Paul Buff presents the PAL and Original Sound studio archives,
vol.7" liner notes by Greg Russo:
"What was not
familiar sounding was Jody Reynolds' "Dusty Skies." The late Reynolds
was a master at very descriptive story songs, especially dealing with negative
consequences. Jody had a big hit in 1958 with "Endless Sleep," but he
never again enjoyed widespread commercial success. "Dusty Skies" is
one of Jody Reynolds' most obscure recordings - in fact, very few people know
about it. It was released by Emmy in the middle of 1962 backed with "Come
On Twist"."
from the "Paul Buff presents the PAL and Original Sound studio archives,
vol.8" liner notes by Greg Russo:
"Jody Reynolds' "Come On Twist" is a rockin'
version of Jody's song that was clearly inspired by the recent success of Chubby
Checker's "The Twist." Jody's track is one of his most compiled songs,
and this series is no exception!"
from the "Paul Buff presents the PAL and Original Sound studio archives,
vol.17" liner notes by Greg Russo:
"Tracks 5
and 7 come from a Jody Reynolds session tape at Pal from June 4, 1960. On
Volumes 7 and 8, we heard Jody's Emmy single "Dusty Skies"/ "Come
On Twist." Those tracks were cut in the spring of 1962. The session from
June 1960 has never been released, and featured Reynolds recording an early
version of "Come On Twist" and a cover of the Larry Williams hit
"Bony Moronie" - both featured here for the first time. Chubby
Checker's "The Twist" was released on July 9, 1960, so Jody's song was
done in response to Hank Ballard And The Midnighters' original version of
"The Twist." Another song listed on the tape box was the Reynolds
original "Here Comes That Feeling," but it was not to be found on the
tape.
