Charted at #5 on Billboard Hot 100 in May 1958 and #5 on R&B chart. Jody only had one other Hot 100 single: "Fire of Love" (#66 in August 1958). In the UK, "Endless Sleep" charted at #4 for Marty Wilde in July 1958. Original Billboard review: "Reynolds (a cat) gives the rockaballad a winning performance. The expressive vocal stint with excellent guitar backing has a sound that could catch on." Written by Dolores Nance & Jody Reynolds. B-side is "Tight Capris".. + Informações

Hit song of the 60's. The topic (suicide) was taboo those days, Demon Records convinced Reynolds to add a happy ending to the song. This version seems less mournful than the '58 recording, possibly in consideration of the "happy ending". LYRICS: The night was black, rain fallin' down... Looked for my baby, she's nowhere around Traced her footsteps down to the shore...'fraid she's gone forever more I looked at the sea and it seemed to say..."I took your baby from you away." I heard a voice cryin' in the deep..."Come join me, baby, in my endless sleep." Why did we quarrel, why did we fight?...Why did I leave her alone tonight? That's why her footsteps ran into the sea...That's why my baby has gone from me. I looked at the sea and it seemed to say..."I took your baby from you away." I heard a voice cryin' in the deep..."Come join me, baby, in my endless sleep." Ran in the water, heart full of fear...There in the breaker I saw her near Reached for my darlin', held her to me...Stole her away from the angry sea I looked at the sea and it seemed to say..."You took your baby from me away." My heart cried out "she's mine to keep... "I saved my baby from an endless sleep.". + Informações

Despite the lack of a string of chart successes, his one big seller was enough to ensure Reynolds' membership in the Rockabilly Hall of Fame, which inducted him in 1999.
