RED'S RECORD RACK
Vincent to Show
With Ed Sullivan by
RED ROBINSON Vancouver
Sun: Nov. 15/57
Gene Vincent will appear in
person on the Ed Sullivan
show Sunday to receive his
gold disc for 1,500,000
sales of "Lotta Lovin'."
This is his
second gold platter. The
first one came 13 months ago
for 2,000,000 sales of a
record called "Be Bop A
Lula." This platter made
Gene Vincent one of the most
promising newcomers of 1957
according to five national
polls.
Gene told me
backstage at the Georgia
Auditorium on Tuesday night
that he's mighty happy to be
in show business and proud
that he has been asked to go
on the Sullivan show Sunday.
His Bluecaps
will appear with him. They
have promised they will sing
"Lotta Lovin" and his
current hit, "Dance To The
Bop."
Watch out for a
major change soon in the
music picture.
The trend to
date has been outright rock
and roll and the various
joint-trends of music that
accompanied it, like
"Rock-A-Billy."
Rock-A-Hula" and
"Rock-A-Chicka." The new
trend seems to be to use the
big beat to back up slow
ballads. This is apparent in
songs like "I'm Available,"
"Honeycomb." Kisses Sweeter
Than Wine" and many more.
Let's face
it--ballads are back. No
quick change is taking
place. It is a slow
procedure this introducing
ballads with the big beat
background.
I doubt whether
the entire hit parade will
be ballads because people
still like to dance to the
big beat.
