LONG TALL SHORTY * TOMMY TUCKER * PYE INTERNATIONAL 25246 * UK
This was Tommy Tucker's follow up to his first (and only) hit, the evergreen High Heel Sneakers - which, like Green Onions from a few years before was an iconic and emblematic Mod record. Long Tall Shorty was written by Don Covay and produced by Herb Abramson (of Atlantic records) it is as excellent a dance track as Sneakers but failed to hit the spot with the record buying public.
