KING 1181
I FOUND A NEW LOVE 74
Buddy Livingston, another new
addition to the label’s stable, turns in a pleasant performance on a new ballad
that sounds like a weeper but isn’t. Livingston
sings with vigor.
I LOVE YOU AND YOU’LL ALWAYS BE
IN MY HEART 72
The warbler does an okay job
with another new effort, as he tells his gal how much he loves her. Side could
do okay in rural areas.
