By CARL LaFONG

Cozy's only million -seller was Part Two which was very popular. It was played by Cole himself with a group. Cozy UE 'JNflERGRO1JNP Cole is one of the USA's best known jazz drummers and played with 's 'Cab Jivers,' and also his own small jazz group. The music of `Topsy' was by Edgar Battle, who also wrote the words, and Edward Dur- ham. Cole's drum solo comes from Battle's and Durham's "Uncle Tom's Cabin of 1939. Cole was born on Oct. 17 1909 at Orange, New Jersey. -Daily Mail Book of Golden Disks martian segel There's a ton of rock and, roll books around. By now everyone should have read Nik Cohn's "Rock From the Beginning" and with Silver Jade "Goldstein's Greatest Hits." If you're fast approaching 30, you will no doubt remember the good advice Pat Boone gave us in his immortal "Twist Twelve and Twenty." As fine as these and other rock re- lated books are, none of them can match the prose style of Joseph Murrells who authored "Daily Mail Book of Golden Disks." And none of them can give you answers to questions like; 1. Who recorded more songs than anyone eAs. else? 2. When and where was Rudolph Isley born? 3. How many million -selling songs did write? 4. What has Julie Andrews done no one else has done? Give up? According to Murrells, the answers are :Ben Selvin- I've never heard of him either but he's recorded about 9000 songs; in Cincinnati on April 1, 1939; 21; and Julie has sold more original cast and soundtrack albums than anybody else-around 15 million. Finding out about Rudolph's birthday is just one bit of informa- tion contained within the pages of Murrells' book. The book is a virtual goldmine of trivia. And speaking of trivia, did you know Murrells was the composer of "Count Your Blessings" and once played in Tom Priddy's Tango Band. If that's not enough, "fly on strangewings" his son, Norman, wrote the music to "House Of Bamboo" which was a hit for a few years back. Somehow Murrells persuaded the powers at The Daily Mail, a British newspaper, that what England really needed was a book consisting of infor- mation and misinformation about every record that had man- aged to rack up a worldwide sales tally of one million copies. All Songs Composed by Drawing from information supplied by trade magazines, promo sheets, agents and record manufacturers, Murrells gives us a rundown of every golden oldie from 's 1903 record- marian segal ing of "Vesti La Giubba" to the 1965 Yardbird's hit, "For Your Love." SIDE ONE AMONGST ANENOMIES A great deal of the book's charm is due to Murrells' junior high RAVEN school writing style. Organization, punction, capitalization, and FLY ON STRANGEWINGS clarity are not some of his virtues. Viz.: MAYFLY Eventually Tab was a U. S.

A RECORD WORLD PoIBl1CR710N i972 WITH ENLARGED CIRCULATION OF OVER 50.000

As the trade annual of the Country Music Industry, the Country Music Who's Who has become a standard reference of history, vital statistics and listings useful to all members of the music industry. For the 1972 edition, our editors have completely revised, updated and added new listings. They have also included entirely new consumer-oriented articles.

The handsomely bound annual is being merchandised as no book of its kind has been marketed before. It is being introduced to a vast audience through television, radio, and the press.

In addition to the editorial revisions, there is the added benefit of increased circulation-music trade sales, library sales, direct -to -the -consumer sales, and the important addition of record club distribution.

This all adds up to a good advertising buy. Make res- ervations now for best ad positions.

Before you ever heard of Welton Lane, 9 top Country artists heard him first.

In the past few years, Welton Lane has performed with Bill Anderson, Loretta Lynn, Carl Smith, Merle Travis, Porter Wagoner, Carl and Pearl Butler, Cal Smith and Sonny James. He started his career as one of the best and most talented well-known travelling church organists in the country. Now Welton Lane is about to release his first Epic single. You might say a lot of talent, exposure and experience went into making it. The song is called "I Just Got Tired Of Being Poor." And judging from Welton's beginning, we doubt that he'll ever have that feeling. "I Just Got Tired Of Being Poor." 07 9 From Country Country: Epic Records.
