This is a great song. So great that we just HAD to name the "Party Doll" dress after it!! Buddy Knox is the artist. We here in Happy Yellow Dress land are HUGE Buddy Knox fans, in fact, another one of our pieces is named after another Buddy Knox song, but we'll save that for another blog post ;)

Party Doll, by Buddy Knox. Please have a listen!

Here is the original Party Doll dress. It's the one that put us on the map ;)

Well! That's it for this post. Do you have any old Rock and Roll songs that inspire you?? Or do you know any old obscure rock and roll songs that we should know about? Let us know!!! You can send us an email, or leave us a comment in the comments section below. We'd love to do a post on your fave old rock and roll artists!!

Thanks for stopping by :)

The "Rockabilly Gal" dress gets its name from the song of the same title. It was a collaboration by Roy Orbison, (one of our personal faves), and Hayden Thompson. This was a Sun Records release. It's a slow swingin' tune with a goooooood beat! Have a listen!

Rockabilly Gal, by Hayden Thompson and Roy Orbison.

Hayden Thompson. He's no Elvis, but he'll have to do...

So weird to see Roy Orbison without his trademark Ray-Bans

One of our original "Rockabilly Gal" dresses, named after the song!

Roy Orbison put out a lot of songs with Sun Records that don't get the attention they deserve. If you get a chance you should also check out "I was Fool" and "You Tell Me". A couple of excellent Roy Orbison releases from Sun records. You can thank me later ;)
