1961

GLITTER IN YOUR EYES * THE SHEPPARDS * SHARP 6039 * USA

Glitter In Your Eyes was The Sheppards second national hit after their debut Island Of Love a Doo Wop hit from 1959 it was released in December 1961, originally on Bill 'Bunky' Sheppard's Wes label #7750, then, coinciding with their move, on Vee Jay #406, the Sharp (another Bill Sheppard label) reissue is from the late 1960s.  A beautiful ballad  Glitter In Your Eyes hovers somewhere between Doo Wop and early Soul, though, it seems to me, more Doo Wop than Soul.
