THE CASH BOX SLEEPER OF THE WEEK
MILLS BROTHERS (Decca 28586; 9-28586)
“TWICE AS MUCH” (2:29) [Porgie Music]
“SOMEONE TO CARE FOR” (2:35) [Robert Mellin Music]
The quartets have it this week as one can easily tell by listening to the terrific rhythmic treatment that the Mills Brothers give to a good soft jump number entitled “Twice as Much”. The boys did a top flight job in the boxes with their “Glow Worm” and this quick beat follow-up should draw a siz- able share of coin, too. Their rhythm and harmony are as appealing as ever. Adding a great deal to the standout vocal offering is an exciting backing presented by Sonny Burke’s ork. Flip is a slower and softer ballad type of number with a lilting background and goes under the name of “Someone to Care For” with qualities in it that reminds one of their smash hit, “Paper Doll”. We go for the top segment in a big way. It’s definitely one of their best offerings.

THE CASH BOX *AWARD O' THE WEEK*
EDNA McGRIFF (Jubilee 5109)
“WHY, OH WHY” (2:57) [jubilee Music]
“EDNA’S BLUES” (2:46) [jubilee Music]
Edna McGriff, talented young thrush, lends her pipes to a pair of her own tunes and comes off with honors. The gal can sing and does. The upper lid, “Edna’s Blues”, is a slow blues that Miss McGriff sells from the depth of her soul. The youngster is soft, tender and tearful. Her personality is apparent on wax, and with the stirring orking of the Buddy Lucas ork to back the songstress, this deck comes out powerful. The under portion is another McGriff owned deck. Music by McGriff, Lyrics by McGriff, and vocal by McGriff. Again the thrush is warm, compelling, and has a maturity that is amazing in such a young girl. She caresses her words with delicate shadings and is a natural for an emotional blues.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
IKE CARPENTER (Aladdin 3172)
“SANDU” (2:42) [Nemo Music]
An exciting number with a spirited arrangement is belted by Ike Carpenter and his Orchestra. A fluent keyboard technique is displayed and makes for a potent platter.

“PACHUKO HOP” (2:12) [Ludlow Music]
The Carpenter group busts it wide open for a racing wildie. Not for the soft lights and sweet music locations.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ipIbMQiq1qE
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LEO PARKER (United 141)
“LEO’S BOOGIE” (2:58) [Pamlee]
A quick beat boogie item is given a rocking treatment by Leo Parker and His Mad Lads. The instrumental is a driving side with featured spot going to a solid sax.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UBN8Ccc6GOE
“COOL LEO” (2:25) [Pamlee]
Flip is a moderate tempo done in a softer vein. Sweet sax and restrained orking adds up to a relaxed and happy disk.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r2de82hY7wU
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
THE CASH BOX RHYTHM 'N BLUES
SLEEPER OF THE WEEK
EMITT SLAY TRIO (Savoy 886)
“MY KIND OF WOMAN” (2:41) [Crossroads]
“BROTHERLY LOVE” (2:39) [Crossroads]
With the trend of current tastes moving strongly in the direction of novelties, The Slay Trio comes up with a middle tempo ditty, titled, “My Kind of Woman”, that uses the cross talk gimmick in the vein of “Gabbin’ Blues” and “I Don’t Know”. Tune is a natural with a happy beat, vocal reading by Bob White, who doubles on the organ; and humorous side comments by Emitt Slay, who doubles on the guitar. Third member of the trio, Jackson, beats the skins. This is no guess, as already, before the review could be printed, the disk has broken open in Cleveland, St. Louis, Texas and Atlanta. The flip- deck, “Brotherly Love”, is a middle tempo ditty sung by White with a trace of his religious background. An emotional vocal of a melodic item makes this a contender in its own right and this side could also happen.

THE CASH BOX RHYTHM 'N BLUES
SLEEPER OF THE WEEK
THE CRICKETS (M-G-M Records 11428)
“YOU’RE MINE” (2:41) [Beacon Music]
“MILK AND GIN” (2:39) [Beacon Music]
When MGM decided to enter the r & b market in earnest they pulled out all stops. Among the talent signed was the vocal group, The Crickets. This aggregation in its first release for MGM, “You’re Mine,” comes through in Grade style. The wonderful blend of voices seems to have borrowed the techniques of several top notch groups and melded them into an original style of its own. The boys dish up an emotional reading of a warm and tender love ballad that reaches out beyond the wax and stir the emotions of the sentimental listener. The flip deck “Milk And Gin” is a moderate rhythmic bounce with a cute set of lyrics. The Crickets convey a happy sound for a pleasing end.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uRULIunWsLA
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
THE BUCCANEERS (Southern 101)
“FINE BROWN FRAME” (2:39) [North Music Corp.]
The Buccaneers chant a quick beat driving item against a belting ork
background. Disk has a happy sound, but ork should be slightly on the softer side as they provide too much competition for the vocal group.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V7x-Q1th0iY
“DEAR RUTH” (2:37) [North Music Corp.]
The under lid is a slow melodic tune with the arrangement comparatively soft. Vocal group, with emphasis on the lead chanter, sound fine.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5cXZPp-WsAg
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BROTHER JOE MAY (Specialty 841)
“iT’S A LONG, LONG WAY” (2:05) [Parker Music]
Brother Joe May and The Sallie Martin Singers join voices on a light rhythmic religious tune. Brother Joe is in good voice and is given an easy chorus assist, and a fine fern solo.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mqb5QPIMoEI
“WORKING ON THE BUILDING” (2:44) [Venice Music]
The lower end is a change of pace. The group belts a steady quick beat in jubilee style.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WVLlIC2YnDs
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
HADDA BROOKS (Okeh 6939)
“BROOKS BOOGIE” (2:47) [Rush Music Corp.]
A quick boogie beat instrumental with some torrid keyboard sweeping. Makes good listening.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EZ43IDHNFqM
“WHEN I LEAVE THE WORLD BEHIND” (2:40) [I. Berlin Music]
The velvet voiced thrush etches a slow, soft, and tender item on the pop kick. Her intimate style and warm interpretation makes this a solid piece of wax.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wya0vMcteF8
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FLOYD DIXON (Aladdin 3166)
“YOU PLAYED ME FOR A FOOL” (2:48) [Mesner Music Pub.]
Floyd Dixon dishes up a rhythmic slow beat blues with a low down treatment. Johnny Moore’s Three Blazers back the moody vocal in fine style.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DATShEw5oC8
“BROKEN HEARTED TRAVELER” (3:05) [Aladdin Music]
Floyd Dixon’s inimitable styling, his passionate reading of the tender lyrics and restrained musical backdrop makes this another contender.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BcZdM1SVgpI
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TITUS TURNER (Okeh 6938)
“MY PLEA” (2:34) [Crestwood Music]
Titus Turner sells a slow beat with a religious feel. Orking is good and the disk would be more effective without the echo chamber.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZIx5qTX_nDQ
“IT’S TOO LATE NOW” (2:31) [Crestwood Music]
Turner does an emotional job on a lover’s lament against a background of easy orking. Same comment on echo.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ewePkBE1MIg
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BILLY FORD (United 142)
“Y0U FOXIE THING” (2:48) [Pamlee Music]
A slow, steady beat chant is effectively chanted in a soft and dramatic vein.
https://archive.org/details/78_you-foxie-thing_billy-ford-and-his-night-riders-ford_gbia0202044b
“SMOOTH ROCKING (3:00) [Pamlee Music]
The under portion is a change of pace. The bouncing quick beat and a crazy trumpet makes exciting listening and should catch lots of plays.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ANNISTEEN ALLEN (King 4608)
“BABY I’M DOIN’ IT” (2:25) [Jay & Cee]
Annisteen Allen belts a moderate tempo cutie with her powerful voice. Reading is stimulating and commands attention.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jf7MkCHX6u8
“YES, I KNOW” (2:46) [Assoc. Hollywood]
The answer to “I Don’t Know” is given by Miss Allen and her treatment is spirited, humorous and alive. The tune is a hot item and this one should share in the plays.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5k6kC1Vf58M
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BROWNIE McGHEE (Red Robin 111)
“DON’T DOG YOUR WOMAN” (2:59) [Bob-Dan Music]
Brownie McGhee dishes up a moderate tempo tune with moralizing lyrics. Backing is potent and Brownie’s chanting and guitaring makes this a fine dish.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PsEctHqqfvs
“DAISY” (2:52) [Bob-Dan Music]
Flip is a very similar item handled in like manner.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3yXPjzFunzw
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BULLSEYE OF THE WEEK
HANK SNOW (RCA Victor 20-5155)
“HONEYMOON ON A ROCKET SHIP” (2:40) [Peer Int’l]
“THERE WASN’T AN ORGAN AT OUR WEDDING” (2:30) [Hill and Range]
Hank Snow comes up with another likely pair of country favorites. Snow is currently strong in the best selling lists with his “Gal Who Invented Kissing” and his latest bids fair to push right up alongside. The top deck, “Honeymoon On A Rocket Ship,” is a quick beat item that moves happily along at a smart rhythmic pace with Snow warbling in fine voice. Unlike so many of our artists, Snow’s reading of the lyrics is clear and understandable. The lower lid is a slow ballad with tender love lyrics nostalgically chanted by the western artist. Titled, “There Wasn’t An Organ At Our Wedding,” the mellow item is a fitting coupling and the pair represent a good buy.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h-OcV-ChBck
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
JOHNNIE & JACK (RCA Victor 20-5164)
“HANK WILLIAMS WILL LIVE FOREVER” (2:30) [Hill & Range]
Johnnie & Jack are late entrants in the race to issue disks on the death of Hank Williams. However the pair are tremendously popular and could sell on that basis.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Crp5FgfoTn8
“JUST FOR TONIGHT” (2:30) [Hill & Range]
The under portion is a quick beat romantic tune with a touch of sadness. The polished duo chant with warmth and tenderness for a highly pleasing end.
