I have the LP
A1 is Beatle Maids
A2 is Bill Haley
A3 is Sonny Til
A4 is Surfaris
A5 is Dick Dale
B1 is Joey Dee
B2 is Crescendos
B3 is Neil Sedaka
B4 is Angels...mis-titled should be Cry, Baby, Cry
B5 is Harptones
I'm certain this is correct...compare artist and songs with 45cat on the ones that others had a question mark on. Sonny Til, Surfaris, etc, Neil Sedaka is when he was with the Tokens 1950s before his solo career. I listened to each song too.
The pressing is terrible for these LPs, Crown was noted for their 1960s pressings to be terrible too...with ground up paper in the wax etc. Crowns LPs from the 1950s were much better...esp the red wax ones.
I did post The Beatle Maids on Youtube...as I'm sure it's the only way it ever came out.
Phil Flowers (listed on cover) is the artist that is not on the LP
I just checked the LP and youtube and I believe The Wobble, on this LP, is by Sonny Til, doesn't sound anything like Bill Haley. As for the other two, I'd say your're correct on the Surfaris, and you're most definitely right on the Harptones. The jacket lists 11 artists and the LP only has 10 tracks. I just put Phil Flowers at B5 because I forgot about the Harptones. Like you said, budget label, take it with a grain of salt.
You've done a great job of guessing which artists belong with which songs, but this budget LP from Synthetic Plastics' Diplomat label doesn't exactly play fair with the facts. It lists Sonny Til on the cover, but I think sides A2 and A3 are both Bill Haley. Haley did an album in Las Vegas released by sister label Guest Star which included both "The Wobble" and "Don't Mess Around."
The cover also lists "The Surfaris" when it's really a totally different group called "The Original Surfaris" who recorded "Latin Soul." It's a long story involving a legal battle, but the group on this record is actually a much better one than the group that did "Wipeout."
"Owee Baby," meanwhile, is really by "The Harptones." You never know what these old 99 cent records are going to contain!
