    All great stuff! I'd add "Sleeping In The Ground" by Sammy Myers and a
    couple more by Bobby Marchan "You Can't Stop Her" and "Tiddly Winks." I
    agree with your rankings of "Roberta" and "Loberta," big favorites of mine.

    Yes I agree "My Love Is Here To Stay" is the better side but not by that
    much. Both are excellent but (and this answers Diane) sadly neither
    comes quite close enough to make the list here
