Ketty Lester - WEST COAST (1965)
NO COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT INTENDED - (Tower 166-B) Recorded at the Capitol Tower in Hollywood, this wonderful 1965 double-sider is one of Ms. Lester's finest discs. The A-side, 'I'll Be Looking Back' is a soulful, tension-building ballad with the flip 'West Coast', a brief but on-fire, dancefloor number. Both sides were written and produced by Four Preps group member, Ed Cobb and arranged by Lincoln Mayorga. Although neither side made any noise in regard to record sales, the tunes were given fantastic exposure when Ketty Lester performed them on ABC-TV's 'Shindig!' and 'Shivaree'.
