Both sides are potent...but the oldie, is the stronger of the two. I ’M NOT A FOOL ANYMORE - T K Hulin (Smash) Listen to it again...and you may still not believe it, but this record has been #1 in five large markets, in the last three months., it would do the same for you, if you play it. GOTTA TRAVEL ON - Timi Yuro (Liberty) She has the ability to sell R & B...and the re­ quests are beginning to pile up at the stations that got it early. This side, all the way to the top twenty. Powerful lyric. HE UNDERSTANDS ME - Teresa Brewer (Philips) #9 at WJHO, Opelika, Alabama. Could break through much bigger in the South with more play. Has the potential. 31 FLAVORS - Shirelles (Scepter) Dick Starr-WFUN, Miami agrees....this is the side. You’ll have to forget their two past semi-failures....judge this on its own merits. On that basis, it’s the closest to their old ’garbage’ sound in quite a spell. YOU LOST THE SWEETEST BOY - Mary Wells (Motown) Jumps into the WKLO, Louisville chart at #35» A top request for Hot Scott-WGIV, Charlotte. Not a smash by a long shot, but with very little acknowledgment, it is far* from being a bomb. YOU’RE GOOD FOR ME - Solomon Burke (Atlantic) Strong stuff! He doesn’t get too much pop play at first, but once the R & B stations get it moving, it’ll be one Of the final quarter’s largest hits. MARSHMALLOW - Johnny Cymbal (Kapp) Jack Gale-WKKO, Cape Canaveral, I believe, is his manager and picks the flip. If this one is going to make it, I feel it’ll have to be this side, which as a new item represents better programming. FUNNY FACE - Linda Brannon (Epic) Top five seller at Cocoa Beach and Cape Canaveral... and a big item in Atlanta. It requires a good three weeks play to break, so don’t start with it unless you want to go all the way...it won’t do it with token spins. MARIA ELENA - Los Indios (RCA) A top request in Houston. I t ’s been around for many weeks. This is the first positive action on it in the South. It does grow on you.

The two had sung together in church as adolescents, and had traveled with the Northern Jubilee Gospel Singers and the Traveling Souls Spiritual Church.

  • Message from TLC President John Sloan (‘98) [email protected]
    Message from TLC President John Sloan (‘98) [email protected] Lonely One of my favorite things to do as a kid was to get to go visit my uncle, Larry Don Gilbert. Uncle Larry lived in the east Texas town of Kilgore, Texas, which was about 18 miles from Henderson, where I grew up. He was around ten years my senior, and he was my idol. Looking back, I appreciate how incredibly tolerant he was to let a little kid like me hang out with him and his friends. Uncle Larry was everything a kid growing up in Texas in the 60s aspired to be: he was an incredible all-round athlete, he had pretty girlfriends and, with both parents working from can to can’t every day, he had an absurd amount of freedom. One of my favorite stories about Uncle Larry was when he and three of his buddies were joyriding in the family station wagon. It was a 1960 model red Ford. They were all twelve years old. Uncle Larry was driving, though obviously he did not have a driver’s license or have per- mission to take the car out. While tooling down one of the main streets in Kilgore, they met a police car traveling in the opposite direction. Instead of acting nonchalant and driving by, they all ducked down until they drove past. Luckily the police officer was not looking at the seemingly-unoccupied car driving by and they got away. While Uncle Larry and I never got into any serious trouble, I became much wiser to the ways of the world.
