“Don’t Mess With My Man” b/w “Set Me Free” was released on Ron 328 in December 1959. The December 14, 1959 issue of Billboard magazine gave this description: “The chick shouts with a determined message: You can have my husband, but please don’t mess with my man. Good beat, and wild honking horns; but unsuited for radio.” Now why did they say that? The first time I ever heard it was on the radio – on the Sunday night radio show that Alan Lee used to do on WQSR in Baltimore. Also note that the copy shown here has been autographed by Irma!
