Taking the one-man band aesthetic to an extreme, Dave Edmunds recorded nearly all his second album Subtle As A Flying Mallet on his own, hiring a bassist and a drummer for only a pair of tracks. Alternating between Spector classics, the Everly Brothers, Chuck Berry, and a variety of R&B, country and pop numbers, Edmunds hits on all the styles of the late '50s and early '60s. 1998 reissue on One Way Records of his debut album, first released on RCA in 1975. This CD features all original cover artwork & all 12 tracks from the original release, including 'Baby I Love You', 'Leave My Woman Alone' and 'Maybe'.
