A song that Steve introduced on-stage in the starring role as Sammy Glick in the 1964 Broadway musical “What Makes Sammy Run?” (540 performances). Robert Alda and Sally Ann Howes co-starred.

Joey Cooper – Outside My Window(1964/08)
Background vocals: Jackie’Robin’ Ward
「ワンダフル・サマー」の曲調。

Out of Los Angeles, the third of six known singles issued by Joey Cooper over six different labels between 1961-1971. Recorded at Hollywood’s Gold Star Studios in August 1964, this release has Joey sharing the microphone with busy session vocalist, Jackie Ward. (Having sang background vocals on countless sessions as well as being a member of the Los Angeles based Anita Kerr Singers, the Ron Hicklin Singers and the Ray Conniff Singers, Jackie is most remember by her Perry Botkin, Jr. produced recordings for Dot Records credited as Robin Ward). Gene Page provided the arrangement played by L.A’s’Wrecking Crew’ and interestingly, Gold Star Studios engineer Larry Levine was also the producer of the session.The Hal David & Sherman Edwards composition of’Outside My Window’ was first recorded by the Fleetwoods in 1960 and 56 years later in 2016, a slick version of the tune was recorded by Damien Jurado. Joey Cooper’s version as well as the other two versions, surprisingly all seem to stay faithful to a similarly styled arrangement.

from the album “In Dreams”(1963)イン・ドリームズ
英盤ほかシングル(1963)では “Lana” のB面。
recorded on November 8, 1961

The powerful, soaring tenor voice of Roy Orbison is unmistakable and very few pop vocalists can compare to his unique vocal ability. His emotive hit ballads,’Crying’,’It’s Over’,’Running Scared’,’Love Hurts’ and’In Dreams’ are stellar examples to that fact but what many may not know is that quite a few of Roy’s hidden LP tracks can be quite surprising. Case in point is the Fred Tobias and Lee Pockriss tune,’House Without Windows’. While versions of the song were recorded between 1962 and 1965 by Steve Lawrence, Cliff Richard, Ray Peterson and Gene Pitney, it was Roy Orbison who made the first known recording. On November 8, 1961 at RCA VICTOR -‘Studio B’ in Nashville, two songs were recorded under the production of Bob Moore and Fred Foster with arrangements by Anita Kerr.’House Without Windows’ and an original Roy Orbison and Joe Melson tune entitled,’(They Call You) Gigolette’. The latter recording would remain unissued and a week later, a second version was recorded at another session. Both recordings would remain in the can for 20 months until they appeared on Roy’s’In Dreams’ LP in July 1963 and also on a 7″ promotional EP disc. Roy’s vocal performance on’House Without Windows’ is beyond stunning. The backing track played by the Nashville A-Team couldn’t have been more on point and Anita Kerr’s uncredited arrangement and backing vocals by her group add to the musical drama. The song is a typical Orbison musical ride that ebbs and flows with beautiful weeping strings that builds and explodes at a cataclysmic finish. How in the world this track never made it to a 45 single release is an absolute head scratcher. Upon listening to all of the available versions, Roy’s take on the song gets the prize without question.

Homer and Jethro – (How Much Is)That Hound Dog In The Window(1953/03)
『ワンワン・ワルツ』のパロディ。

Pop Chart Peaks: Billboard 17, Cash Box 22 – C&W Chart Peak: 2

Lita Roza -(How Much Is)That Doggie In The Window(1953)
orchestra conducted by Johnny Douglas

UK Chart Peak: 1 (NME)
Performing professionally over a span of sixty years, the English singer’enjoyed’ (she didn’t really) her top recording success with this cover of the Patti Page hit

Patti Page – The Doggie In The Window(1953/01 her original #1 version)
パティ・ペイジ – ワンワン・ワルツ
orchestra conducted by Jack Rael
barks by Joe & Mac

An enormous record hit for Patti with both the young and the old, “Doggie” lived for 5 months on the pop charts, spending 8 weeks at #1. Over the decades this slight novelty has also become the favored whipping boy for many pre-rock-pop critics who invariably cite “Doggie In The Window” when generalizing on what early-50s popular music was all about.
