    Diane's 2 records battled it out and the Little Richard won as the final ballot (from Mark) had LR first and the Cashmeres last. Dian had not won in a long time, so she's happy this morning. Roger's Tate took third and his breeding was last.

    Possibly a little off topic. Looking at Bruce's favorites from 1955
    (about 140 of them), I realized that after about 2 years of submitting
    obscure entries solely from 1955, that I never posted my 1955 favorites.
    So here's 222 of them, limited to single releases, mostly from the US,
    but a few UK entries.

    I'm glad to see you like the Nutmegs--so do I.

    IMO the contest was especially graced by the presence of its best vocal group record
    ("Love Only You"),the one-derful soul sound of McKinley Mitchell and a really nice version of a pop song I always liked ("Changing Partners")
