MUSIC MAESTRO PLEASE * THE STARLINGS * JOSIE 760 * USA
The Starlings debut and the first release on Jerry Blaine's New York based Josie label, the group, all from the Bronx, were Larry Gales, Stan Gilbert, Jackie Marshall, Johnny Johnson and Clyde Franklin. The group never had another release for Josie, in fact this line up split after this record; two members: Gales and Johnson reformed another group and carried on using the name and had two releases on Dawn. After these two releases flopped the group renamed themselves The Twilighters and had two records out on MGM and that was it The Starlings/Twilighters were no more.
