    All good songs but none great. Never cared a lot for "My Hero." Could have ranked bottom 4 in
    almost any order.

    Sorry, when I typed that I thought that "My Hero" was second, but I double checked it and it was third, I and forgot to remove the Brucie part.

    I heard only 1 Ray-O-Vac on "You Gotta Love Me Baby Too." I listened to it without knowing who the
    artist was. I really liked the song and the singer and kept thinking it would be a lot better if
    he had a group backing him.

    I didn't love Willie.

    My A&B was dead in the water after 8 ballots, 4 points out of 4th place, but along came Dennis who put it first while putting the 4th place item last. That gave us a tie at 22 points, but we then got crushed 6-3 in the tie breaker anyway. So Arthur and
    Booker is done with Jim's Crochet taking 4th place to move ahead. Diane's Drops were third with Carl's Brant second. Steve's Velvs win the group.

    1. Four O'Clock Baby - Darrell Rhodes & The Falcons - 30

    I don't know much about these guys except that they appeared on Slim Willet's Winston label out of Abilene,Texas (label was originally called Edmoral---the company that had the original released version of Dean Beard's "Rakin' And Scrapin'" rockabilly
    favorite) and put out three singles between 1958-1959 all of which have been bootlegged.

    My personal favorite of their output is "Lou Lou" their first Winston release. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sn1xBTZxEpQ

    Be prepared to spend seriously big money on these if you want original 45RPMS.

    For instance "Four O'Clock Baby" fetched over 1000USD recently and the followup "Can I Be The One " (1959) did better still selling for over 4000GBP in a recent auction over here.

    Their last release came in 1962 with a pretty dire version of "Red Sails In The Sunset" on Del-Par label

    When I knew Finney-Mo that recorded "My Baby's Gone" in the '60s his
    name was Leslie Finney. I knew him when he was in Dallas in the 1970s.
    In fact, the Juke Jumpers backed him up one Labor Day weekend at the

    queen segment during his show.

    I always understood that "Dug Finnell" was the same "Doug Finnell" who had the original version of "Right String But The Wrong Yo Yo" way back when.

    OTOH the different "Finney-Mo" as Jim says was Leslie Finney who also penned a few numbers including Lattimore Brown's "Darlin' Dear" on Excello
