What is "twangin..."

Twangin'... is a 1981 album by Dave Edmunds, and his final recording for Swan Song Records before moving to the Columbia label. The album would also be the last Edmunds solo effort to feature the band he co-led at the time, Rockpile.

Twangin' consists mostly of outtakes from previous Edmunds recording sessions, including one track dating back to 1968 (a version of " Baby Let's Play House", a rockabilly number made famous by Elvis Presley). The album also features a collaboration with the Stray Cats, whose debut album Edmunds had just produced.

The album is almost entirely made up of cover songs, including such obscurities as the Wilson Pickett B-side "Three Time Loser", along with better-known tunes like the George Jones classic " The Race Is On".
