A MEGA RARE LATE 1960 78 FROM LYNN BURTON
HE'LL HAVE TO STAY
b/w PAPER ROSES
The Burton Sisters are from Logan, in North Philadelphia. The eldest sister, Rae became a singer and a local star in Philadelphia. The two younger sisters, Rose and Evelyn then followed. Rose (who became Carol in the act) and Evelyn (shortened to Lynn) finally were signed by the Stan Zucker agency in New York. This took them from Fall River Massachusetts to Dothan, Alabama, to six month stints in French Canada where they performed in French. From there to the Borscht Belt, Grossingers, the Concord and the like where they appeared with stars of the day like Eddie Fisher, Buddy Hackett and others. They toured with a USO troupe and were regulars on the radio program "Jewish Cavalcade of Stars" on WMGM in New York.
During one of their nightclub appearances they were heard by song writer Bob Merrill who wrote among other things, the show "Funny Girl" and "How Much is that Doggie in the Window". He signed them to a contract along with his partner, Murray Kaufman, known as "Murray the K" a New York disc jockey. Bob got them a contract with RCA Victor. With RCA they recorded "French Can-Can", "Divided Love," "Please Don't Touch" and "Let Me Go Lover". Rose, nee Carol, met the RCA Distributor in Cleveland on a disc jockey tour and the two married, bringing to an end to the career of the Burton Sisters.
Lynn continued in show business, touring with the show "Fiorello" and making night club appearances until she married and moved to San Francisco. This mega rare 78 of her recordings of the Jim Reeves "He'll have to Go" Answer record "He'll have to Stay" and the classic "Paper Roses" is incredibly hard to find! It is produced by the legendary Bob Merrill and is exceedlingly good!
