Let's see what I can add.

Drinking Wine Spo-Dee-O-Dee ¦ Johnny Burnette Trio (came out on a single
in 1957)
Sweet Love On My Mind ¦ Johnny Burnette Trio
Your Baby Blue Eyes ¦ Johnny Burnette Trio
Rock Billy Boogie ¦ Johnny Burnette (came out as a single in late 1957)
Paralyzed ¦ Elvis Presley
When My Blue Moon Turns To Gold Again ¦ Elvis Presley
If You Need Me ¦ Fats Domino
Love Me ¦ Elvis Presley
I Flipped ¦ Gene Vincent & His Blue Caps
Hide And Seek ¦ Bill Haley & Comets

These are the 10 highest ranking LP tracks on my 1956 not counting the
ones that Roger mentioned already.

Great version!! IIRC this was in the March 2023 Obscurities contest
(nominated by Carl) and won that
contest. It also won the year end "Champions" contest.

And yes, Coral put it out on a single in August 1957 as the flipside to
one I never cared for much---from the last Burnette Coral session in
1957 --"Butterfingers"

I might have used this one if it hadn't also been out later on a US
single
Post by Bruce
Paralyzed ¦ Elvis Presley
When My Blue Moon Turns To Gold Again ¦ Elvis Presley
These two Elvis classics went back to back on a UK HMV label single in
August 1957

Love Me ¦ Elvis Presley
Taken from Elvis' second LP "Elvis" this charted via an EP in the
USA---that may just be the biggest selling EP of all time (unless maybe
The Beatles outdid it? )

Over here "Love Me" (my favorite ballad by him BTW) was on an HMV single
b/w "Mystery Train"

I Flipped ¦ Gene Vincent & His Blue Caps
My second choice Vincent entry would have been "Jumps Giggles & Shouts"
also from the "Bluejean Bop" LP
(that was also on as UK-only single)
