MISC NOTES:
1PA, 1RA & 1RB.) Monarch Records pressing #s: ^28940 / ^28941 (Apr.-May, 1959)
6/59: "I Love An Angel" charted on Billboard's Top 100. It peaked at #66.
2020. A black and white "after market" 45 rpm picture sleeve was located for "I Love An Angel" / "Bye Bye Baby". It features the cover photo from the 1964 live lp [The Fiesta Club Presents Little Bill and the Blue Notes] which was recorded in Seattle's Ballard/Crown Hill neighborhood. (Camelot Records #102 Seattle, WA). One factual flaw in the production is that it credits Dolton Records to Los Angeles, CA. When "I Love An Angel" was issued, Dolton was still based in Seattle!
