$

150

After their first recording session for Big Top Records in New York had ended in failure, their manager Ollie McLaughlin persuaded them to rewrite and re-record an earlier song they had written, "Little Runaway", to highlight Crook's unique instrumental sound. On January 1961, they recorded "Runaway" at the Bell Sound recording studios, with Harry Balk as producer, session musician Al Caiola on guitar, and Crook playing the central Musitron break."Runaway" was released in February 1961 and was immediately successful. In April, Shannon appeared on Dick Clarks American Bandstand helping to catapult it to the #1 spot on the Billboard charts where it remained for four weeks. Two months later, it also reached #1 in the UK.RECORDS:

• GRADING Grading is based on the following criteria
• Sealed = store stock new
• Near Mint = like new or near new with only one small light mark, a 9 1/2 or better on a 1-10 scale
• Mint- = extremely nice. Would be Near Mint, except for a couple of light hairlines or scuffs, which do not affect play
• VG++ = still a very nice record with all or nearly all of its original gloss but may have a few more light, surface marks, hairlines, needle tracks or the like which should not materially effect play
• VG+ = a nice, but used record that may have a series of light scuffs or scratches. It probably plays with a few pops, but has no serious problems.
• VG = a well-used record that still should sound OK when played, but may have moderate surface noise, pops, etc.
• VG- = a very well-worn record that plays through without skipping, but will do until a better copy comes along.
• Good = not actually good at all but probably will play through but with much in the way of surface noise, pops, crackles, etc. Still, will have no cracks, chips or the like
• Fair = you’re getting this record just to own but not to play
• Poor = the sky’s the limit, generally I will discard a record this bad (and sell the cover, jacket or sleeve alone) unless the label holds some particular interest
