Once Upon A Time was a major national doo wop hit and did well on KFWB & KRLA, but not until Jan. and Feb. 1961, so KFXM really go the jump on this goodie.

NEW ORLEANS is such a garage-
sounding hit. Loved it.
Even better for me was
DEAR LADY TWIST a bit later.
That one rocked beginning to
end. I can stand to listen to
it 10 times. Yes!!
