The Yank

More bird oriented labels-

A few more -

Some 50's labels -

Two more-

Here's another one -

I'm not sure exactly what you're looking for but for some reason the Lewis Sisters used their husband's last names on "He's An Oddball" - these same credits also appear on the Autograph's "Do The Duck" .

"In Love" probably did well in Pittsburgh and Baltimore. It did even better in Tony's hometown of Buffalo, New York where it got up to #25 on a Pop station -

The Jimmy Parker 45 was released around April/ June of 1964 while the Susan Rewis 45 was out in June/ July of 1966.

You are correct- Marty recorded for Flame but never owned the label. I did find this 45 mentioned in Cashbox which is not listed on Discogs -

Is this the same Marty Lewis that owned the Flame label ?

I don't know where the Nov.1967 release date came from- "Someday, Someway' was around in November of 1966 ( See #27)

September sounds about right for the Brothers' Criss Cross release- this October, 1967 has the song at #13 and the Creations "Footsteps" at #17.

The Shock release for "Try It Baby" is from '71- here's a survey with the song listed as a Pick Hit -

That's the same price I saw for Earl.

According to the liner notes of the Grapevine CD "Lou Beatty's Detroit Soul", Lou's middle name was Roy.

The group's next single did well on the station going up to #24 -

Here's a picture of the group from the February 1st, 1964 issue of Cashbox-

I found these two articles in February, 1964 issues of Cashbox . The 1st one announces Lanrod is distributed by the I.R.P. group and the 2nd one reviews the single with I.R.P. as the publishers of the 2 songs-

Eddie Bishop's "Call Me" is mentioned in Billboard and Cashbox during the week of July 2, 1966. Chris Montez's version was released in October of 1965.

I appears that Edward morphed two people into one with CHRIS Montez and Petula CLARK = CHRIS CLARK? I don't see a version of Tony Hatch's "Call Me" on Motown until the Supremes and Four Tops did a version in 1971.

Petula Clark's "Call Me" was never released as the A side of a single ( it might show up as a B side or on a reissue 45). It is on the "I Know A Place " album though. Chris Montez had the hit version of "Call Me" in the U.S.

I believe this is the same person -

I think the article could be referring to Phillip Bailey who was born in Denver.

There's not much info on the group. I did find this though- I'd like to know more about the E, W, and F connection -

I would go with 1968 but I'm not 100% positive. If you look at the bottom of the label of the E.J. release (Dec. 1967) it says "Riley Productions-12328 Dexter, Detroit, Michigan 48206. A later release from August, 1968 also has the Riley Productions..... info. "This Generation" just uses the Dexter Street address. There may be another reason why this info is on some late '67/ early '68 releases. This coupled with a random release numbering system makes it very hard to be sure.
