Floyd Robinson was a one-hit wonder who cracked the Top 20 in 1959 with "Makin' Love," a memorable ditty made more so by Robinson's unique voice. His subsequent recordings occasionally recycled snippets of melody and lyrics from "Makin' Love," but unlike the usual retreads of the era, these songs -- "Mother Nature," "Tattle Tale," and "The Art of Making Love" -- stand on their own merits. Robinson was a talented songwriter in the vein of John D. Loudermilk, and often built his songs on juvenile and novelty conceits aimed at the teenage set. "The Man in the Moon Is a Lady" gives its alien a chipmunk voice, but "My Little Martian" uses the "talking steel guitar" technique associated with Pete Drake. The soaring chorus of "The Magic Lamp" is more musically arresting than the typical genie novelty, and the stuttering chorus of "You're Mine" is instantly memorable. Makin' Love is a gray market anthology of Robinson's RCA Victor, Dot, Jamie, and Groove recordings from the late '50s and early '60s, including the contents of his lone RCA album, in mixed fidelity. The teen songs, coupled with country-pop arrangements and Robinson's character-laden voice, is a winning combination, and it's a shame that he didn't make a bigger impact on record buyers. Robinson was a cousin of Jesse Lee Turner and wrote the novelty hit "The Little Space Girl" for him, so compilers have mixed up the two artists on occasion despite their dissimilar styles. Makin' Love doesn't make that mistake, but there are a number of parallels between Robinson and Turner's recordings, including an affinity for novelty material and the presentation of countrified singers in a teen pop context. Listeners expecting rockabilly or rock & roll will be disappointed, but lovers of teen music and the bubblegum country-pop of John D. Loudermilk will find a myriad of delights.
