Mamie Van Doren cover

Escandalo en la Universidad (Soundtrack)  Gamma
This is a very rare record and a beautiful example of fifties cheesecake photography. This is a spanish version of the “B” movie “College Confidential” and it’s far superior in presentation to the U.S. issue. This one makes good use of star Mammie (sic) Van Doren!

Sweet and Lowell

Sing for God and Country  “The Singing Midget” Lowell Mason and the Crusaders  Crusade Records

There are a bunch of Lowell Mason “singing midget” lps out there.   There were other little singers putting records out but he was the biggest.
