(300) HONEY BABY and DAVID "BABY" CORTEZ

Looking at all those labels, I'm reminded of being on Clock and then having the song "Honey Baby" pressed in England for London American label. Someone I remember, a truly nice man, over at Clock was David "Baby" Cortez who was one of the writers of "Honey Baby" for me.

He had his own #1 record on Clock in 1959, an instrumental, called "The Happy Organ." His birth name David Clowney is the third name on the label.

We're linking above to a small site we found on Baby that has a picture of him as I remember him.



Dave and Wally Moody over at Clock were so successful, they had about 10 number one hits in the late fifties - 1959. That was the most for any medium sized label in the nation.


COMING UP SOON we're going to link to the amazing on-line record label collection !
