October 23, 2025 Records of the Day

In 1961 Ernie K-Doe went all the way to number one on the Billboard charts with a woman he says “was sent from down below.” That would be his “Mother-In-Law.” Ernie never had another big hit but he remained a legend in New Orleans until his death in 2001. The “Mother-In-Law” single on Minit Records is worth up to $25.00 today but the album, released in 1961, is up to $200.00.
