    Okay, let's see what I can add here from my 1963 list.

    37 ¦ Downhearted ¦ B.B. King
    This should have been mentioned on the 1963 unreleased list. It's
    actually the best version of his famous "How Blue Can You Get" with a
    different title.

    What year do you show this recorded?

    1963

    63 ¦ Roll Over Beethoven ¦ Beatles
    Charted here via a Canadian single as did "All My Loving." I believe
    it's the only 2 cases of an imported single that was only an LP track
    making the US charts. Nowadays songs do not have to be on a single to
    chart.

    As with nearly all their remakes I don't care for this one at all

    Diane loves it.

    78 ¦ I Want You To Be Mine ¦ Flairs
    Probably would fit better in the year it was recorded.

    #105 for me and an 8. I agree it would be better in year of recording.
    What year do you have?

    I don't know. Unca Marvy just shows it as being on the album in '63

    111 ¦ That's What You're Doing To Me ¦ Diablos

    Good track but I don't have it listed. What info do you have?

    This album:

    P-8016 - From the Beginning to Now - Nolan Strong & Diablos/Five Dollars
    [1963] You Are - Nolan Strong & Diablos/That's What You're Doing To Me -
    Nolan Strong & Diablos/Wild Side Of My Baby - Nolan Strong &
    Diablos/Tender Passion - Nolan Strong & Diablos/Old McDonald - Nolan
    Strong & Diablos/Fools Rush In - Nolan Strong & Diablos//The Bells -
    Five Dollars/Weekend Man - Five Dollars/I Will Wait - Five Dollars/Dr.
    Baby - Five Dollars/That's The Way It Goes - Five Dollars

    132 ¦ Hot Nuts (part 4) ¦ Doug Clark & His Hot Nuts

    I don't have this listed either???

    I never got part 1 and 2 which might make it in a different year, but
    this is from here.

    161 ¦ Old McDonald ¦ Nolan Strong & Diablos

    Sorry but I dislike the song intensely in ANY version!! :)

    I never paid attention to the song until I saw the original 5 Keys do it
    live at UGHA and it became a big favorite. Their version is a 9, Diablos
    a 7.

    Ten fave album tracks chosen from my yearly Favorites lists

    Today………from 1963

    None of these were issued as singles in USA

    ** indicates a 45rpm single in UK

    Jerry Butler|Message To Martha|Vee Jay LP1076|1963 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X-hePdQI344

    I always thought Jerry had the original release on this memorable Burt Bacharach song but it seems that honour might belong--incredibly--to
    Miss Marlene Dietrich with her rendition (in German) "Kleine Treue
    Nachtigall" which some sources put in 1963 tho others say 1964.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G7d5bYTIUqM

    Personally I don't think Jerry has much to worry about tho I have to say
    my very favorite version of the song has always been the 1964 Lou
    Johnson reading (as "Kentucky Bluebird (Send A Message To Martha))
