Mae West - Way Out West

Posted over 3 years ago

Maewest This bizarre 1966 album was the first attempt by Mae West for a showbiz comeback. Despite being an extremely talented playwright and acerbic comedic actress, Mae West's final attempt at showbiz triumph was not to be. This album featured West covering The Beatles, Percy Sledge and The Guess Who (to get technical, it is a cover of Chad Allen and The Expressions... to get more technical, it is really a cover of Johnny Kidd and The Pirates. The song is Shakin' All Over) among others. Some of it is surprisingly listenable. West's next two projects, motion picture duds Myra Breckinridge (1970) and Sextette (1978), are also considered camp classics. Listen to the whole album here .
