Comments and Reviews


Antoon Van Olderen SUBS 1st Feb 2025



W.B.lbl 19th Jan 2025		I'd've left it at January 1956 in terms of its release and no exact day, especially given Billboard's "Review Spotlight" date. The label fonts on both copies shown are from Progressive Label & Litho Co. of Brooklyn, NY.



xiphophilos 19th Jan 2025		Is there any evidence that this record appeared as early as December 1955? On Wikipedia, I find that it came out on January 10, 1956, but also without source reference.



Mike Gann 12th May 2021		With respect to the original posters, I've added clearer label images for both sides



llpiper 19th Feb 2015		Added B-side label shot



llpiper 19th Feb 2015		added clearer image of A side
