STARDAY RECORDS 530

MUSICAL-AIRES
Sept 55 (BMI clearance on 28th Oct 55)
45-530-A - Hop-A-Long Sister Mary
(Dills/ Mauney)   (Starrite BMI)
45-530-B - Wildcat Boogie
(Dills)   (Starrite BMI)
STARDAY RECORDS 530
(Band from NC)
The Musical-Aires were Rich Mauney, Carol Dills and Jim Waller. “Hop-A-Long Sister Mary” was also issued as “Skip Along Guitar” on STARDAY ep-258. It was then subsequently issued on STARDAY LP 176 as “Skip Along” and credited to TOMMY HILL. Both sides are nice country / hillbilly guitar led instrumentals. Reminds me of early Chet Atkins. See comment below from Dave Penny with regards to Carol Dills.  (MC / Al Turner / Phil Tricker)

  1. The Musical-Aires was a North Carolina group, Malc. Carroll Dills was the guitarist who wrote and performed the fantastic "Rocking Guitar" with Cecil Campbell on MGM.
