    Can't Hardly Stand It - Charlie Feathers

    Its OK but is my least favorite of the 1956 Feathers releases

    1. One Hand Loose
    2. Bottle To The Baby
    3. Tongue Tied Jill
    4. Get With It
    5. Everybody's Lovin' My Baby
    6. Can't Hardly Stand It

    Castle In The Sky - Bop-Chords

    Super NYC 1950's uptempo doowop at its best!!

    I Put A Spell On You - Screamin' Jay Hawkins

    Always preferred the "Little Demon" flip myself

    Friendly Persuasion (Thee I Love) - Pat Boone

    At last Dot match Boone up with a song ideally suited to his singing
    style. Not exactly my cup of tea butthere's no doubt its much more
    suited to him than the Little Richard material and other r&b stuff Dot
    had him do

    Don't Knock The Rock - Bill Haley & Comets

    Title song from the inevitable Haley-led followup movie. Of course by
    this time Elvismania was in full swing and Haley was the proverbial
    dead man walking

    Could It Be You - Four Tops

    Yes they ARE the very same! Although they'd appeared on record already
    (as The Four Aims) the title mentioned here WAS the first record
    released as credited to "The Four Tops" . And by Chess Records no
    less. With a super uptempo flip "Kiss Me Baby" too!

    My Prayer - Platters

    Now just WHAT contest have I seen this in lately?

    Out Of Sight, Out Of Mind - Five Keys

    Thanks to lack of a proper licensing agreement NONE of their previous
    Aladdin releases made it to these shores meaning that "Ling Ting Tong"
    on Capitol became their UK debut record (and then only on a 78!)

    Stutterin' Papa - Buck Griffin

    Another HUGE favorite on the London rock 'n'roll circuit when it was
    repro'd in the 70's thanks to Uncle Henry

    Please Don't Leave Me - Johnny Burnette Trio

    Wonder who the first person on this newsgroup was to ever hear this
    previously unreleased recording when the "Tear It Up" LP was put
    together for UK Decca? :-)
