    Where it performed thusly :-

    R1
    4 Roy Milton - Early In The Morning - Specialty 464
    14 Johnny Ace - Cross My Heart - Duke 107

    R2
    7 Les Paul & Mary Ford - Vaya Con Dios - Capitol 2486
    12 Johnny Ace - Cross My Heart - Duke 107

    R4
    5 Johnny Ace - Cross My Heart - Duke 107
    11 The Five Royales - Too Much Lovin' - Apollo 448

    SPONTANEOUS LUNACY VERDICT - 8/10

    I'm with you but it's very close. Reviewed Jan 17 so it would have to have been released just after the new year and reviewed right away in an issue that would have had a deadline of like Jan 7-9 to get into an issue with a cover date of Jan 17. But a
    new release by him coming off of a number one hit would have done that.
