Show llll BY LYN CONNELLY ALL of a sudden movie stars have discovered there's gold in them thar record shops . . . They're right, of course, and we see nothing wrong In a star with a good voice that has been trained cutting some disks on the side . . . But anyone who isn't completely com-pletely fiat Is rushing Into the recording studios these days and some of them are pretty awful . . . Unfortunately, they sell because be-cause of their names, but it doesn't seem fair to the thousands of unknown un-known persons who have good voices but aren't signed because these movie parasites are monopolizing monopo-lizing the business. gal Mlneo and Tab Hunter aren't bad . . Their voices will never go down In history, but they do a pleasing Job and can get by with today's trend in music (Tab should stay away from ballads, though) . . But Robert Mitehum and Audrey Hepburn . . . they must be kidding! We haven't caught Robert Wagner yet so can't pass on him . . . Wish though that movie stars would stay in the movies and let others exploit the record field. PLATTER CHATTER MERCURY: -Pattl Page's newest new-est shows promise "Wondering" "Wonder-ing" . . . Reverse Is a charmer "Old Cape Cod" . . . Not the best she's done but should evince a lot of Interest . . . Rusty Draper comes op with tailor-made number num-ber In "Freight Train" that will please his big following ,., Reverse Re-verse has "Seven Come Eleven" and It, too, Is typically Draper . . . Carol Hughes, 14-year-old sensation, sensa-tion, debuts with a cutie, "My Big Brother's Friend" backed by "Lover Boy" . . . The gal bas good pipes. CAPITOL: Another debut, this time pretty and talented Ann Leonardo doing "Straws In the Wind" . . This gal has got to go places . . . Flip side has "Traveling "Travel-ing Stranger" . . . For an exciting excit-ing new instrumental, try Les Baxter's "Lonely Whistler" backed by "Ruby Lips" . . . only terrific. |
