Favourite Company Sleeves?
I remember seeing the Hitsville covers on releases in 1966.The Lp festooned covers were not used until 1967- if you look at the albums they're current releases. Also the date they started being used (or were manufactured) is right on the cover .

The Greatest Thing ??
I found this on a web site as an upcoming release. Besides giving the company releasing it (Tuff City) and a release date (June 4th) there is no other info. Does anyone know anything else about it?

- WALLY COX,THIS MAN
Billboard is referring to Marge and Gower Champion the dance duo who were in quite a few 50's Hollywood musicals. There's some videos on you tube where you can see them in action- WALLY COX,THIS MAN
I never heard it until a few minutes before I posted it- it's different ! Somehow, Wally managed to make Billboard's "Winners Destined For Headlines in 1954" list! This probably had more to do with "Mr. Peepers" than his 45 -- INFO RE MEL WILLIAMS CAN IT BE ME
It appears that "Can It Be Me" on Modern came out after this Holiday Inn release. This survey is from June, 1966 with Mel at #30 -- WALLY COX,THIS MAN
I'll let you be the judge-- Whats Happened To 'this Man'
- Tempo Rhythm - Candy
They probably were-I can't find any info on the group. They also backed Rubin Russell on this release -- Tempo Rhythm - Candy
- BETTY RENNE
The Betty Renne who recorded for Nu-Art/ Lawn is Betty Renee Garvin. She was an early member of the Bluebelles but left the group before they recorded.- Tommy Neal -going To A Happening
This article appeared in Record World and Cashbox around the same time. I think that they legitimately leased the single but there was probably something buried in the contract that they thought gave them the right to re-release "Going To A Happening" to whoever they wanted to .- Carol & Gerri
- Rose Valentine RCA black stock value ?
"Sweetest One" was a much bigger hit for the group with sales near 100,000 according to this article -- Rose Valentine RCA black stock value ?
"No Baby" did get some airplay in New York City, Washington D.C. and Detroit but never really took off. This survey shows Frankie "Ton Of Dynamite" Crocker -- Rose Valentine RCA black stock value ?
- Ravins On Ristic
I think it might not be easy tracking down who was in the group. Both sides are on you tube and even Manship commented that after they 45 they "instantly ghost like disappeared as if they never existed".- Johnny Mae Mathews - I Have No Choice MP3
I know you were looking for Johnny Mae's version but, her daughter does a nice job too !- Harry Lee Gates Seems to also be Louis Curry
