Yes, I mentioned a while back that I will not be nominating any records
for January. I'll continue to vote, though, and hope Dinty will do the
same.

I must have is mixed up with another label that has the address shown on it. Thought it was Arcade, but maybe not.

And yes, I did read where the gruop's name was misprinted on the
label. It should have been "Master Keys" according to Uncle Marvie.

I have updated the January 2021 Nominations playlist:

https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLfrgSfewEoB_mMsGZMxFzLSoZrNmQXTgA

[Rick Schubert]

Here are my nominations:

Don't Pass Me By - Du-Droppers - RCA 47-5504 - 1953

Baby, Be Mine - Diablos featuring Nolan Strong - Fortune 511 - 1954

Rock Me - Nutmegs - Herald 459 - 1955

Satisfied - Roy Jones & The Shells - Swirl 101 - 1960

Christmas Day - Detroit Junior - Foxy 002 - 1961

I hope you aren't tired of Christmas songs now that Christmas has passed. There were no
nominations in December, and early November seemed too early. I originally had an additional
Christmas song I wanted to nominate, but it turned out that it had already been used in a Singles
Battle.

[Roger Ford]

Let's see how these fly :-

Biscuit Baking Mama - Big Ed - Checker 790 - 1954 *

The Bells Of My Heart - Fascinators - Your Copy 1135 - 1954

I Can't Go On This Way - Fats Domino - Imperial unreleased - 1955 **

Long Gone Daddy - Pat Cupp - RPM 473 - 1956

Lumumba - Snuffy Smith - Spinett 1008 - 1961 ***

* This is blues artist Ed Burns

**Even tho its from the same year (1955) THIS IS NOT THE SAME SONG as
the more famous "I Can't Go On" (sometimes called "I Can't Go On
(Rosalie)" . This one WAS released in 1963 but in an overdubbed
version

*** artist here is Huey "Piano" Smith

That'll get *my* vote!

[DianeE]

With Mark dropping out for January, that leaves us with only 30 records.
After talking with Bruce, I agreed to nominate 2 records to bring us
up to 32. Where that's going to leave me for February I do not know.

On this date in 1928 The Originator, Bo Diddley, was born. (He died at
79 in 2008.)

Look At My Baby - Bo Diddley

and a record with a familiar title, but no relation to the Motown hit
from the 60s:

Function At The Junction - Smoki Whitfield

http://youtu.be/uj87lyIFyMM

About 15 years ago, Bo Diddley was opening for George Thorogood at the
Mountain Winery. As we're driving up the hill, we see signs indicating
that Bo was sick, and wouldn't be performing. WTF !! I went to the
ticket booth and told them I bought my tickets for Bo. They refunded my
money. Cool.

I saved that money to hopefully see him , but I guess I might as well
spend it now.

By the way, I loved that commercial with Bo Diddley and Bo Jackson years
ago.

My Dad used to take me to see all the Bomba movies as they came out
here (there were a dozen I think). IIRC Smoki was in all of them.

Thanks for reminding me
