VeeJay LP 1042 — A sort of "oldie but goodies" idea in reverse here, as the label frankly admits that these are all expected future hits. At least half of the tracks have yet to be released as singles. The Duke of Earl, the Dukays, Jerry Butler, Dee Clark and Wade Flemons are among the more familiar names, but there are good contributions, -too, from Rod Bernard, the Sheppards, Ray Whitley, Grover Mitchell, Norman Charles and the Bill Allen Trio. The disk is literally loaded with sides with fine prospects in the current market, and Veejay is to be commended.
