A few price-drops evident here. Post-Christmas poverty perhaps? Ward Burton was a bargain as a load have turned up - does anyone know the story on this one?

The ward burton remained elusive for many many years,then maybe a very small handful of mint copies turned up over the last few years,giving the elusion it’s not a rare record anymore! I reckon it’s still a rare record on the grand scene of things!

personally I much prefer the Martha Starr version,a bit slower,but a cool tune,and I’ve never seen it in the flesh! I wonder which version came first?

A quick search on popsike chucks 63 copies up,  not to mention the copies sold by other means and outlets.  Its no where near as rare as some make out now.

Will Hammond say's,

"I actually gave her (Carolyn Sullivan) the name 'Martha Starr.' I wrote and produced both the Martha Starr and Ward Burton versions." Hammond indicates that the Martha Starr version was recorded prior to the Ward Burton release.
Carolyn Sullivan has three 45s on the Charay label.

Hammond's comment also refers to Sweet Temptation attributed to "Cressa Watson" (not Cresa Watson), apparently from this LP compilation. Hammond wrote; "The Cressa Watson thing is a fake. I think the guy at the record label was dating Cressa Watson or some kind of hanky panky and tried to impress her with this fake record."

Based on this comment, I wonder whether the Martha Star on Thelma circa 1966 - apparently Martha Ann Shamley - is a different artist than this Martha Starr (aka Carolyn Sullivan) on Charay, who also recorded with Moses Dillard.

I wonder how Cressa is a fake?  It is the same as Martha with a break cut out?
