"LET ME G0 LOVER" (A Dream Story Come True) This is the Cinderella Story of a girl who made good. It'$ the kind of story that Hollywood dreams uP, but ThIS TIME IT IS TRUE! An American Televison producer was putting on a coast to coast television show in which the chief character was a disc jockey and was looking for a song that could be Put on record and sung by an unknown singer: odr American Artisc and Repertoire Chief Mitch Miller was approached and he picked a song thac had had mediocre success two years before, 'Let Me Go Devil" Mitch renamed it, altered the lyrics and it emerged under the title of "Let Me Go Lover" He then started searching around for a new voice and finally decided on JOAN WEBER Joan recorded the number little knowing wnac she was starting; because after the record had been played in the Television Show all switch boards were jammed and this unknown song and singer swept into the No. position of National Parades in 24 hours. By the following week; this version was No. on all American Hic Parades: Other recording companies quickly recorded the song but the Joan Weber version still remains the first choice of the public in America, England and Australia. Unfortunately ic will not be possible tO follow the progress of this number on New Zealand hit parades because the Broad casting authorities have restricted its use over the air. However we have no doubt ac all over the sales potential of this sensational hit. Incidentally the sales of this record in the first five weeks following its release in America totalled ONE MILLION !
