October 8, 2024 Records of the Day

”She was sent from down below.” That’s what Ernie K-Doe sang about his mother-in-law. But he should have thanked her for giving him a million-seller that hit #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1961. Released on Minit Records, a copy of “Mother-In Law” is worth up to $50.00. In 1971, Janus Records released “Here Comes the Girls” by Ernie K-Doe. He could have shown his appreciation for his mother-in-law by giving her a bunch of those singles. A copy can sell for $400.00 today.
