Sweet Talkin' Woman A song taken from the LP Out of the Blue by The Electric Light Orchestra. Its original title was 'Dead End Street', but changed during recording - perhaps to avoid confusion with a 1966 hit of the same title by the Kinks.
The track became the third Top Ten hit from the LP in the UK, peaking at No. 6. Initial copies of the 12" and 7" formats were pressed in purple vinyl.
The version released in the United States was 10 seconds shorter than its British counterpart due to a slightly faster mix.
The song has been covered by the Christian Ska band Five Iron Frenzy on their Quantity Is Job 1 ep.
