    The Morris Pejoe and Little Richard are two new favorites I wasn't familiar with prior to this contest.

    4. Miss Annie - Plurals - 18


    Diane's LR wins the group and moves into the semi-finals along with Boo Ford which was second. There was a tie for thid and that tie breaker was won by Jim's Pejoe as it was ranked higher on 5 of the 8 ballots. Rick's Plurals ended up last.

    A pathetic result.

    the Little Richard record is a noisy mediocrity,
    (Bruce, in my mind, was sucking up to Diane,
    who might have been relying on the 'halo' effect,
    and Mark/Roger might have grievances :-)

    Bruce, to place this record in the top 1000 records of
    all time leads many of us to question your taste in music.

    'Sunshine' is a colorful term I picked up from the Brits:

    "a form of address to express unwillingness to accept another person's

    It's a shame these 2 nice vocal group records were up against 2 killer

    Roger's Tate wins the group and Carl's Hopkins takes second to also move into the ELITE EIGHT. You guys will not have Brucie to kick around anymore in November as my Cuff-Links was kicked out after a third place finish. Mark's Bland was last and is also
    done.

    Country Woman – Boo Breeding (Roger) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W1wlm2YXnm8

    FINAL RANKINGS


    1. Love Only You - The Meadowlarks - 26
    2. Yes Yes Yes - The Cashmeres - 20

    3. Natural Natural Ditty – The Jewels - 20
    4. Blackberry Boogie - Johnnie Lee Wills - 14


    Carl's Meadowlarks wins the group easily. Diane and Roger battles for the second spot, each of them looking to place a third item in the ELITE EIGHT. They ended up tied for second place. Each one was ranked higher on 4 of the 8 ballots. The tie was
    broken in favor of Diane's Cashmeres, which had 3 first place votes to just one for Roger's Family Jewels. If Roger had put his own record first it would have moved on. Jim Lee Wills was last.

    Had to vote for the best vocal group record in the contest.

    Jim Lee Wills was last.

    I prefer the Tennessee Ernie original on "Blackberry Boogie" and it's that one that graces my 1952 favorites list
