CHARLIE AND RAY SIGNED WITH HERALD RECORDS IN 1954 AFTER WINNING THE APOLLO THEATER’S AMATEUR NIGHT FIVE WEEKS IN A ROW. THEIR BEST SHOT AT CHART SUCCESS, A CATCHY, CHEERFUL LOVE SONG CALLED “I LOVE YOU MADLY” WAS COVERED BY THE FOUR COINS WHO TOOK IT INTO THE TOP 30 EFFECTIVELY KILLING OFF CHARLIE AND RAY’S VERSION. THEY DID RECORD AT LEAST SEVEN MORE SINGLES FOR HERALD (ALL INCLUDED HERE) BUT THEY WERE NEVER ABLE TO COME CLOSE TO THE AIRPLAY THEY RECEIVED ON THEIR FIRST SONG. GOOD CATCHY '50s R&B. ***

TRACK LISTING: I Love You Madly / I Gotta Have You / Tag Along (unreleased) / My Lovin’ Baby / Certainly Baby / Dearest One / Oh Yes / Little Fool / You’re To Blame / Sweet Thing / Take A Look At Me / The Closest Thing To An Angel / Oo Gee Oo Wee / Mad With You Baby / Guess I’m Through With Love / I Love You Madly (slow version).
