NOTES
*later retitled “But I Do” for the latter part of its chart run
** this 1961 reissue of the Students record originally on Note label had
already been reissued on Checker in 1958 (see the Checker post on here)
***Originally on Old Town label in 1957  reissued to compete with the
Diamonds version in 1958
****Originally on Mascot label in 1957
***** Song also known as “After Marriage Blues” (as per UK release)
******Originally on Arvee label in 1961 and reissued on Chess
******* Also issued almost simultaneously on Sunbeam label in a
different take The Argo version is much the better IMO.
The London label issue in the UK is the Argo version (but label credit
goes to "Aristocrat" in Chicago.Huh?)
