'The 'unmistakable sound of summer' - again! Who on earth advises this man? As for the cover pic - same comment. Plus unfunny, silly Facebook 'humour'. Hope the music's better but I guess real lifelong fans have that familiar feeling of crushing disappointment.

Why can't the man be just marketed as the guitar legend he is ?!

(Peter Gunn might be good though!)

re: Peter Gunn...

Not sure about Baby Elephant Walk....one tune that does go well with the Peter Gunn guitar riff is Jezebel..

I have a feeling of..."Hank's still recording, great. I wonder what this LP will be like!" I don't do the book of faces myself but Hank's latest little update made me smile just as I used to smile all those years ago when I saw them live and Hank told the story of his brother rupturing himself when he was digging in the sand where his wife had lost her wedding ring...several years running.

... I like the cover! Much better than the awful mfp like cover for 'Hank' - and the man himself is looking very cool...

Ordered my limited edition copy anyway - only 13.61 direct to SA!

While you’re waiting for the new album to be released, why not follow Hank on Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/user/hank-marvin


ahem...

The correct title (as given by Goffin and King) is Will You Love Me Tomorrow[?].

True, the lyric contains the word "still" inserted just there in every verse other than the first.

But to a true pedant like me (and one or two others here, I would guess), "Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow" makes me feel murderous...

PS: I'm looking forward to Don’t Get Around Much Anymore, Michelle, Alfie, Peter Gunn/Baby Elephant Walk, Moon River (a beautiful melody, though done to death in the sixties), Doctor Who Theme, Cry Me A River and America.

I'm wondering what the original track Russian Doll will sound like, i'm guessing perhaps a slow ballad.
The cover looks good but this 'unmistakable sound of summer' tag is a bit naff, and it was used before for 'Hank' three years ago. Hank sounds great in any season.

Desperately disappointed that the album doesn't contain more than one track written by Hank. Originals please Hank / Ben!

That's the trouble with these Russian dolls, they're so full of themselves.
