The
Prowlers,
Popular New
Singing Group
by
Jack Cullen Vancouver
Sun Dec. 20,
1957
Another group of local
entertainers have made
the wax scene with the
current release on
Aragon records of "The
Prowlers."
Most of the
crew attended John
Oliver high school and
it is here that they
first broke the unit in
at various school
functions.
Originally
most of their material
was in the rock and roll
idiom but in recent
times they have
broadened their musical
tastes to include other
tempos.
Nineteen-year-old Les
Vogt is the lead vocal
with the Prowlers and
the four others are
Stretch and Bob Tillyer,
Carl Ries and Fred
Bennett.

RED'S
RECORD RACK
Ricky's
Riding
Highway of
Hits
by
Red Robinson Vancouver
Sun Dec.
20,
1957
Three outstanding
newcomers headed the
popularity polls this
year.
They are
Johnny Mathis, Jimmy
Rodgers and Ricky
Nelson.
Ricky is
currently riding up the
highway of hits.
He has the fifth most
popular and best selling
album in North America
called "Ricky."
He has the
number 18 song on the
survey from cash box,
"Be Bop Baby." He
also has the two pick
songs of the week in
both trade
magazines: One
side is called "Stood
Up" with the flip
"Waiting in School"
already showing on the
charts in Los Angeles
and three other major
American cities.
This looks
like just the
beginning. Just
toward the end of this
year Ozzie Nelson took
Ricky over to Imperial
records from Verve and
signed one of the
biggest contracts in
years.
He has been
featured with Lew
Chudd's Imperial label
for just over three
months now and has all
the above-mentioned
awards and hit songs.
He's a son
of Ozzie and Harriet
Nelson from TV and his
songs are selling so
well that Elvis will
have competition in
1958.
