NOTE

Columbia CL 2501 was one of the first albums in Columbia’s ‘House Party’ series, launched in 1955. The October 1, 1955 issue of Billboard magazine provides some information about this budget series: 
‘On October 3 the company <Columbia Records> will begin shipment of a new pop 10-inch series, each disk holding 
six tunes and selling at a new low list of $ 1.98. (…) Columbia’s new 10-inch line, to be known as the “House Party” 
(CL 2500) series, will be the firm’s push promotion for October.’
