[78-L] Johnny Standley

[David Lennick]

Standley did two more singles for Capitol that I'm aware of.."Proud New 
Father"/"Clap Your Hands" (similar to IITB) and "Get Out the Vote" (anybody 
remember what was the flip?). He's also on a rare cast album of a non-existent 
musical "Clara" with Betty Garrett. Interesting that he really did work tent 
shows as a youngster.
