"DATE ON THE CORNER"

if this nice set of rockabilly and country-flavored rock 'n' roll came with any notes at all, I'd feel a lot smarter right now. But, since it doesn't, let me piece together what little I can. The four featured artists are Billy and the Hot Rods with five cuts including "She's 18" and a cover of Chuck Berry's "Johnny Be Good"; Don Feger with the Embers, doing four numbers including the title tune here and "Look Out Baby"; Charles Underwood with one track, "The Wrong Way"; and a group known variously as the Jokers, the Clefs, and the Five Spots doing 15 numbers, several of which are offered in two or more versions, including "Say You're Mine" and "Little Mama". The only source labels that I've been able to locate are Future for the Five Spots and Grace for the Jokers. And I'd say the sound is late 50's to early 60's. T'ain't bad music. (DH)
