One Of Mr.. Singers students

One Of the songs they sang
was Q number written by David

Mr.. Singer had TO tell the

the idea TO Let's Go TO the

doing today.
Mr.. Singer made some other
changes too. He listened TO all
the boys sing solos-besides

said Danny would be the lead
singer. He had the best voice

MFR. Singer had planned to
use the record only as q "dem-

songs to some company which
would record them with Its

But they sounded too good.
So Mr.. Singer put the record
out on his own small label and
started distribution.
The record caught on quickly
and soon several big companies
were trying to buy the master.
