The Fool - Johnny Kidd & The Pirates [London, England] - 1966 - "Elvis Presley would cover this Lee Hazlewood produced/penned song in 1973 with excellent results. A Blue-Eyed Soul/Rock & Roll beat with a Blues guitar riff. Good first impression on this late 1950's sounding song." - The Very Best Of Johnny Kidd & The Pirates [Import UK] (EMI Records Ltd) [Disc 2]-2008.

NOTE: I picked up this 2 CD compilation new ($9.84 including S/H) from a seller on amazon's site by Johnny Kidd & The Pirates last week (7/21/2011) and finally got around to reviewing it, because I was baby-sitting a dog and two cats at another house:

What you get is 56 songs (1959-1966), 2:18:58 total time, 321.8 MB (MP3 format 320kbps, VBR set at Highest Quality) in iTunes.

What I got was seven songs that are rated 5 stars by me, BUT I'll only present the crème de la crème from these:

Lyrics:

Well Gather round me people

and Hold your glasses high

And drink to a fool, a crazy fool who told his baby goodbye

Too late he found out he loves her

So much he wants to die

Oh drink to a fool, a crazy fool who told his baby goodbye

He needs her, oh he needs her so

and He wonders why he let her go-oo-oo

Oh She's found a new love, buddy

now He's a lucky guy

Oh drink to the fool, 'cause I'm that fool and I told my baby goodbye

Guitar interlude

He needs her, don't you know he needs her so

and He wonders why he let her go-oo-oo

She's found she found a new love, buddy

now He's a lucky guy

Oh drink to the fool, I'm that fool and I told my baby goodbye

I told My baby goodbye

Who told my baby, who told my baby...
