"The Boy Next Door" edit

allmusic refers to this track as being written by Greene, Harbach, Youmans whereas Wikipedia has an article under the same title referring to a 1944 song popular song by Hugh Martin and Ralph Blane from the musical film Meet Me in St. Louis, where it was performed by Judy Garland. Any one out there able to confirm either way? Cheers! --Technopat (talk) 17:24, 15 January 2009 (UTC)Reply

Chicago Calling edit

This album was called "Chicago Calling". It's right there on the BACK cover. "Introducing" is a marketing blurb. Just like today, marketing/sales always dominates other considerations.

Since everyone involved is dead, all the later people assumed that the name of an album was on the front cover, but that was not true in the 1950s, when the front was entirely an illustration, and the TEXT was on the back cover.
