THE LOWDOWN
BY MASCo YOUNG

New York (ANPJ From where
we sit we've always figured that
Billy Eckstine is just about one
Of the greatest voices in the musi-
I cal game. Most singers who've
been around for more than one
| decade are certain 10 have their
ups and downs, in trying 70 keep
[ their names on the hot proper
| ty list But Billy's experiences Of
late haven't dealt with ups II has
been a case Of too many downs.
Why? There has 10 be a flock Of
good reasons for his plight when
anyone with the most out-mOded
| hearing aid can tell that the guys
got something
Right now Billy Eckstine is
beginning to feel wanted and i'm
portant again, since his IF Can
Help Somebody" is making an i'm
preston on the charts in some
parts of the country. But what
comes next?
We feel that it's about time that
somebody gives Eckstine and his
recording advisors at Mercury Re
cords a tip. Anyone who was
teenager or an adult back in the
early forties can remember the
Billy Eckstine Of those days. Then,
Billy was known as one of the
greatest blues singers. His re-
cordings Of hits like Jelly, Jelly"
stormy Monday Blues" and Pm
Falling For You" helped to es-
tablish him as a promising VOC
alist. But today he has strayed
a long way from such tunes, con-
centrating on the tough popular
ballads that seldom produce hit
numbers in today's highly com
petitive field. What Billy needs
is to get himself an armfIl Of
strong blues ballads, written es-
pecially for his voice, and get
busy with recording session.
This doesn't mean that he's
TO forget the popular ballads. 1t
simply means that Mr.. Eek
stine shouldn't keep avoiding
something that can help keep
his name on the hit charts, along
side Elvis Presley, Sam Cooke
and the like.
GOSPEL GRIPPE: I'm So Glad"
the new release by Clara Wards
Famous Ward Singers, sounds
more like a gospel song entry
into the rock and roll race, rather
than the religious tune that it's
supposed to be. This ones a bit
too racy, swingy jivy and pep
pered with an upbeat that's more
properly suited for guys like
Chuck Berry, Jerry Lee Lewis and
Little Richard. If this newest num-
Der by the greatest name in the
gospel singing field is any indica-
ton of things to come then Little
Richards switch from rock and
roll to evangelism means very
little-since the difference, accord
ing to the way its defined in I'm
