Just got word that Dr. Rusty Camp has hired the Funk Brothers band from Detroit to be the recording band for "RUSTY RECORDS" new cd. Because the stakes are so high (the top four groups get recording contracts with Rusty Records), The "boss" has decided to go with the top pros in the industry. As mentioned previously, The Five Satins, The Squires, Rusty Rivets & The Rockets, and The Fabulous Showstoppers are already signed to do the cd. Now some new groups have been accepted to participate. They are ---- Johnny K. & The Heartbreakers (Southington's own John Kennedy with a revamped Heartbreakers), Susie Q & The QTs, and The DEE- LITES. But a persistant rumor has again crossed my desk. It seems that Woody "The Legend" Crosby has joined forces with Dick "Flash" Carlson to form a super group to try to wrest a recording contract from the sponsors. And this just in - Mike "Bogey" Boguslawski has agreed to not only write a new song for Johnny Kennedy's group - Mike will also lend his vocal expertise to the mix. Things are starting to heat up in Plainville - stay tuned to all the news!
