The Drifters Sing (EP)

This is a great extended-play release from Atlantic, featuring four songs from the first two Drifters singles—including "Money Honey," which Dave Marsh pegs at #390 in his list of the 1,001 greatest singles of the Rock'n'Soul era! The other single here, "Such A Night," is also among the group's best. All of these tracks feature Clyde McPhatter on lead vocals. The label is a strong EX, but has some tiny black writing and light red writing on the A side. The audio is also a strong EX.\r\n

The four songs (starting with Side 1) are:

\r\n
    \r\n
  1. Money Honey—#1r, October 1953 (Jesse Stone)\r\n
  2. The Way I Feel (Blanche Carter)\r\n
  3. Such A Night—#2r in March 1954 (Chase)\r\n
  4. Lucille—#7r in March 1954 (McPhatter)\r\n
