Merchant Of Love/ What Do You Mean To Me

This is a new, unplayed promo copy from the Louise Neal 45 Collection. Before joining the Motown team in the late 1960s and contributing as producer/writer for many Motown hits of the 1960s and 1970s, Hal Davis released a slew of singles (but no albums) on various labels beginning in the late 1950s. This great 1961 single features two Doo-Wop-style numbers well worth seeking out. (The tracks were first available on the Wizard label.) Note: This beautiful promo 45 has no notable flaws, grading Mint across the board (Labels, Vinyl, Audio).
