 Review
This is a good budget album that contained some hard-to-find Fireballs songs when it first came out. "Wishing" is especially interesting. Crown leased several old Fireballs tunes, mostly instrumentals, so it could cash-in on the group's hit "Sugar Shack," with Jimmy Gilmer on lead vocals. Crown quickly put out an LP that listed the only two Gilmer vocals it had - "Wishing" and "True Love Ways" - on the front cover. But between the time it printed the cover and the time it pressed the record, Crown realized "Sugar Shack" was going to be a monster hit and it could milk the material for a second album. As I point out in my book on Budget LPs, "Wishing" does not appear on the first album even though it's on the cover. Instead, it shows up as the first song on this second LP!
The other instrumental cuts by the Fireballs are excellent, and even the filler cuts, almost certainly by Jerry Cole, are good. Cole liked to borrow licks from popular songs, and fans will find that "Let It All Out" on this album is really "Tequila" sideways.
