One Of Our Deleted Albums Series

Rusty Warren (1930-2021) is largely forgotten today but in the late 1950's and early 1960's she was one of the highest paid nightclub performers in the US.

She released this album in 1959 on the Jubilee label of Jay-Gee Records, catalogue number JGM 2024. It has been deleted for decades but has recently been released on a British re-issue label called Jasmine Records: https://www.amazon.com/Songs-Sinners-Knockers-RUSTY-WARREN/dp/B07NN4G18C/ref=sr_1_2?crid=9EWK285VBE9P and https://jasmine-records.co.uk/en/easy-listening/3180-rusty-warren--songs-for-sinners--knockers-up.html

I have not heard the Jasmine Records reissue of this album but I have other Jasmine Records releases and they are all good quality.

Audio taken from a 1960's US pressing of the original Jay-Gee Records vinyl LP which I recently found in a "$1 Records" bin at a local second hand record store.
