PHILLIPS “I NEED YOUR LOVIN’ KISS“ Composer: - Harold Jenkins-Jimmy Ray Paulman Publisher: - . - Hi-Lo Music Incorporated Matrix number: - None - Not Originally Issued (2:00) Recorded: - November 16, 1956 Released: - 1997 First appearance: - Bear Family Records (CD) 500/200rpm BCD 16112-1-4 mono CONWAY TWITTY - THE ROCK AND ROLL YEARS 1956 - 1964 Reissued: - 1999 Bear Family Records (CD) 500/200rpm BCD 16311-4 mono THAT’LL FLAT GIT IT! - VOLUME 16 “I Need Your Lovin’ Kiss“ which also sounds as though it might have been titled “Love And Happiness“, Sam Phillips was right on both counts when it came to Twitty: he definitely had talent, but didn’t display it at Sun. This is good journeyman rockabilly with all the energy and contagious enthusiasm that Twitty brought to his work, but it lacks the spark of originality that informs the very best Sun recordings, and would later inform Twitty’s best recordings.
