CP-6241 – Uprising
(Gruded -Maduri- Kohler, Mate BMI)

CP-6242 - Teach Me To Say Goodbye
(James Testa)

Rite account # 137

[1961]


"Garage Surf sound twangy guitar".

Despite the Hollywood address printed on the label, it's certainly a Cleveland, Ohio related record :
  • The Rite account number (137) is associated with the Audio Recording Service Studio of Cleveland, Ohio, presided by Vladimir Maleckar.
  • Writers Maduri (Carl Maduri), Kohler (Donna Jean Kohler) and James Testa are names found on various Cleveland recordings.
