1960
SHOPPING FOR CLOTHS * THE COASTERS * ATLANTIC 10258 * UK
Carl Gardner, Billy Guy, Will Jones and Cornell Gunter, sing, or rather, perform, on this cutting piece of social satire. The song is about a young man who desperately wants to by the latest in fashion, but has no money or credit rating, I just love the line by the hapless shopper "That suit's pure herringbone" and the salesman "That's a suit you'll never own".
