Record Rambling

CHICAGO: Morris Price, who heads up Metro Record Dist. Here, hosted a luncheon and live concert in the Cotillion Room of the Continental Plaza Hotel (1), to intro MGM’s hot new group, The Cowsills – who performed excerpts from their newly released album and literally fractured the audience of 250 guests! Their debut deck “The Rain, The Park & Other Things” is already a national sizzler!

The Cowsills follow up their current chart single, “The Rain, the Park And Other Things,” with their first album. In addition to the group’s chart item, the set includes “Thinkin’ About The Other Side,” “Dreams Of Linda,” “Getting’ Into That Sunny, Sunny Feelin’ Again,” and “How Can I Make You See.” This happy-sounding LP should rack up major sales.
