December 18, 2024 Record of the Day

The Platters was without a doubt the most prolific and successful Doo Wop group of the early Rock and Roll era. The hits started in 1955 with “Only You.” That was followed by more classics like “The Great Pretender,” “My Prayer,” and “Smoke Gets in Your Eyes.” But it’s one of the Platters’ earliest releases that is among their most collectible. In 1954, Federal Records issued the Platters single “I Need You All the Time.” An original copy, as seen here, can sell for $750.00 today.
