PICK OF THE WEEK

ELVIS PRESLEY (RCA Victor 8134)

"ONE BROKEN HEART FOR SALE” (1:34) [Elvis Presley BMI—Blackwell, Scott]
“THEY REMIND ME TOO MUCH OF YOU” (2:30) [Gladys ASCAP—Robertson]

These two new tunes, from Elvis’ forthcoming pic, “It Happened At The World’s Fair,” should quickly be added to the artist’s fantastic smash collection. One half’s a captivating rock-a-rhythmic weeper tagged
“One Broken Heart For Sale” while the companion piece is a soft and extremely pretty sentimental opus titled “They Remind Me Too Much Of You.” The Mello Men, this time, supply the stellar vocal backdrop.

CHUBBY CHECKER (Parkway 862)

“LETS LIMBO SOME MORE” (2:12) [Wyncote, Kalmann ASCAP Mann, Lowe]

“TWENTY MILES” (2:15) [Kalmann ASCAP—Mann, Appell]
Checker, who’s coming off a two-sider sales-giant in “Limbo Rock” and “Popeye (The Hitchhiker),” can make it a repeat performance with this pairing. On one half he brightly continues the current dance craze as he calls out “Let’s Limbo Some More.” On the other end he happily walks off “Twenty Miles.” Great vocal and instrumental showcase on these two powerhouses.

THE EXCITERS (United Artists 572)

“HE’S GOT THE POWER” (2:32) [Trio BMI—Greenwich, Powers]

“DRAMA OF LOVE” (2:20) [Sylvia BMI—Blueston, Medley]

The Exciters, who had a bust-wide-open deck in their initial UA stand, “Tell Him,” continue the exciting pace with this new one. It’s a fantastic driver, tagged “He’s Got The Power,” that never lets up from the opening bar. Great Teacho Wiltshire support on a sure-fire chart entry. Backing’s a dramatic beat-ballad stand.

GENE McDANIELS (Liberty 55541)

“THE PUZZLE” (2:09) [Regent BMI—Dean, Savorese, Crofford]
“CRY BABY CRY” (1:56) [Century XXI BMI—Taylor]

McDaniels follows his recent chart outing, “Spanish Lace,” with a release that looks good from both ends. On one side he tries to figure out “The Puzzle” of love in a catchy cha cha beat fashion. On the other end he packs loads of emotion into a driving, steady beat shuffler tagged “Cry Baby Cry.” Top notch assists from the Johnny Mann Singers and Hank Levine’s musicians on both halves.

FATS DOMINO (Imperial 5909)

“THOSE EYES” (2:20) [Travis BMI—Guidry, Bartholomew]
“HUM DIDDY DOO” (2:00) [Travis BMI—Domino, King]

Fats can have his biggest duo in quite awhile with this new Imperial stand. One half, “Those Eyes,” is from the tearful, beat-ballad category. The other, “Hum Diddy Doo,” takes a happy jump-rhythm ride. Fats and his instrumentalists are at their best on this sales-dynamite pairing.

DEE CLARK (Vee Jay 487)

“I’M A SOLDIER BOY” (2:36) [Conrad-Curtom BMI—Mayfield, Cobbs, Lance]
“SHOOK UP OVER YOU” (2:45) [Pamtec BMI—Hunter, Bosley]

Clark can easily regain his winning chart way with this new release. It’s an infectious, shuffle rock sentimental romancer tabbed “I’m Just A Soldier Boy,” that Dee delivers with loads of feeling. Potent ork and (cadence counting) choral support. The tantalizing cha cha beat lover’s lament on the flip also has that healthy chart outlook.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

NAPOLEON TYCE (Norwood 105)

(B) “SITTING HERE” (2:25) [Nu-Lenora BMI — Tyce, Brooks]
Good blues plaintive from the singer, whose other vocal assistance includes a male chorus with a deep voiced chanter. Diskery is a Washington, D.C. operation.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p79hYiIedb8

(C) “PAPER DOLL” (2:00) [E.B.Marks BMI—Black]
Sprightly blues reading of the oldtimer.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

DICK & DEEDEE (Warner Bros. 5342)

“SAY TO ME” (1:47) [Odin ASCAP—St. John]
“YOUNG AND IN LOVE” (2:16) [Odin ASCAP—St. John]

Dick & Deedee can take a trip to chartland either end, or both, of this new Warner Bros, session. Both the shuffle-beat-ballad “Say To Me” and the lilting beat-ballad “Young And In Love” are wrapped up in most attractive vocal and instrumental fashion. Excellent two-sider.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

BARBARA LYNN (Jamie 1244)

“DON’T BE CRUEL” (2:36) [Shalimar, Elvis Presley BMI— (2:05) , Blackwell, Presley]
“YOU CAN’T BE SATISFIED” [Crazy Cajun BMI—O’Neil, Rebennack]

Barbara Lynn should soon be adding this oldie-newie pairing to her impressive list of dual-mart clicks. One half’s the while-back Presley triumph, “Don’t Be Cruel,” that the lark and the ork-chorus dish up in thumpin’, shuffle beat cha cha fashion. The other’s a heartfelt, beat-ballad newcomer, labeled “You Can’t Be Satisfied.” Both ends could ride side by side up the hit ladder.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

THE DUKAYS (Vee.Jay 491)

“COMBINATION” (2:35) [Roosevelt BMI—Weiss, Edwards, Jr.]
“EVERY STEP” (2:.35) [Conrad, Karland BMI—Williams]

The Dukays, who had Top 100 representation awhile-back with “Nite Owl,” can have another solid money-maker in this new Vee Jay offering. It’s a sensational rocker that features a “Combination” of the popular teen dance steps and comes off as a possible new craze. Backing’s a strong cha cha twist’er that can also make noise.

PICK OF THE WEEK

Newcomers

In an effort to call D.J. attention to Pick records by "Newcomers" (artists never before on the Top 100) the editorial staff of Cash Box will list such records under this special heading.

LOUISIANA RED (Roulette 4469)

“RED’S DREAM” (2:46) [Jon Ware, Frost BMI—Glover, Levy. Reig]
“RIDE ON RED, RIDE ON” (2:50) [Jon Ware, Frost BMI—Glover, Levy, Reig]

This one’s been kicking up a pop-r&b territorial fuss. It’s a downhome entry, labeled “Red’s Dream,” that Louisiana Red puts across with blues authority. Could develop into a solid money-maker. Coupler, “Ride On Red, Ride On,” moves along at a quick clip. Both portions are in Red’s “Back Porch Blues” LP.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

LITTLE WILLIE JOHN (King 5717)

(B+) “HEAVEN ALL AROUND ME” (2:10) [Lois BMI —Starr]
The vet r&b chanter unleashes his potent vocal talents full-blast on this top-notch, chorus-backed lament. Side has some excellent, super-charged gospel chords. Could happen.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fpgRHD1n8yA

(B) “DON’T PLAY WITH LOVE” (2:25) [Be-Jo — BMI — John, Johnson] This time out John offers an interesting, raunchy, tradition- oriented bleuser. Fine ork-chorus backing.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HzO874PoA3w

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

MONGO SANTAMARIA BAND (Battle 45909)

“WATERMELON MAN” (2:26) [Aries BMI — Hancock]
The Riverside Records’ affiliate might have a click on its hands with this sunny cha-cha novelty, which has a very commercial stint by the ork and now-and-then laff remarks by various voices. Eye closely.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SXagf36qoNY

(B) “DON’T BOTHER ME NO MORE” (2:24) [Mongo BMI —Capers]
Bright mambo entry.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RquUR-ysvME

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

ERNIE K-DOE (Minit 661)

“BE SWEET” (2:27) [Shirlit BMI—Kador]
The performer tops a showing that’s on the order of his big sometime-back hit, “Mother-in-Law,” although the setting sound is more ambitious than the latter item. This grow-on-you sound should be watched.
