LOVER, PLEASE DON’T FIGHT

It is singularly appropriate that Mae West

should be recording an album of rock ’n’ roll

hits. Miss West has been rocking ’em in their

seats, and rolling ’em in the aisles since long

before the term rock ’n’ roll was invented.

Miss West is one of the great show business

figures — and you can figure that statement in

more ways than one. Her luscious proportions

(plus the fact that her tremendous box-office

popularity saved 1700 Paramount theatres from shuttering in the thirties) inspired

British aviators to name their inflatable life jackets the “Mae West”. That hardly begins to tell the story of the inspiration for

which Mae has been directly responsible.

She was a glamorous headliner nonpareil

in big time vaudeville. Mae is the

incomparable, the original, the one-and-only

“Diamond Lil.” She made the Broadway

stage sizzle with her galvanic performances

in “Diamond Lil,” and other plays including

“Sex,” “The Wicked Age” and “Catherine

Was Great.”

Mae brought people back to the movie box office during the worst years of the

Depression with her racy, rollicking

portrayals of free-hearted, generous ladies. As Hollywood and the world’s most puissant

sex symbol, she became and remained one of the biggest moneymaking stars of all time. Her appearances today in television, theatres,

clubs, and other entertainment media

guarantee overwhelming public response.

Throughout her career, she introduced a

series of memorable songs in films, on

records, and the Broadway and night club stages. Hers was the first and still unsurpassed

version of “Frankie and Johnny” to be heard

on the screen. “My Old Flame” was composed

especially for her. She is also indelibly

associated with such musical creations as “Easy Rider,” “I Like a Man What Takes His

Time,” “I Like To Do All Day What I Do All

Night,’ and “He’s a Bad, Bad Man (But He’s

Good For Me).”

In this album, Mae rocks and rolls to an

especially selected repertoire of the latest

rock ’n’ roll hits, backed by the dynamic young group Somebody’s Chyldren.

The voice is torrid. Her beat is sensational.

Her rhythm is like no other rhythm in the

business. When she sings these emotional

lyrics, they take on deep and feelingful

meaning. It’s as though Mae was made for rock ’n’ roll, and rock ’n’ roll made for Mae.
