Description: This is an example of the kind of split airplay that used to drive record companies crazy. We just posted the other side, Would I Still Be Loving You, that was a big hit in Florida, but nowhere else. Then we find this side made regional charts, the exact same week in Aug. 61, in Toledo (WOHO) and San Bernardino (KFXM), and nowhere else. Now both sides are posted. Whew!

Yet another example of the unparalleled guitar artistry of Les Paul. Only reached No. 79 on a national chart, but got at least as high as No. 19 in San Diego.
