Here Come The Girls

Previously unavailable anywhere for over 35 years! Title track is a surprise UK hit and is currently featured in a top European commercial for Boots, you know the one. Includes two bonus tracks-previously unavailable on cd. Ernie K-Doe scored one of the biggest hits (possibly the biggest) in the history of New Orleans R&B with "Mother-in-Law," a humorous lament that struck a chord with listeners of all stripes on its way to the top of both the pop and R&B charts in 1961.

The song proved to be K-Doe's only major success, despite several more minor hits that were equally infectious, yet he remained one of New Orleans' most inimitable personalities. Vinyl copies are trading for over $400.00 on ebay! Produced & written by Allen Toussaint and featuring The Meters.
