recently been trying to find out more info on success records from des moines, iowa.
the record that turned me on to it was the blendtones - "come on home" and i recently got "do the kangaroo" by jimmy mchugh.

anybody know anything about this label or have any other titles on it?

label looks like this...

There's a Cicero Blake 45 on the label too. Can't think of the titles off the top of my head, through Google should help.

Another decent one that I have:
The Extensions - I Want To Know / My Need S-109

and some further info. The label was run by a fella named Bill Lasley, who apparently wound up in Chicago as he also ran AMp 3, Expo, Celtex, Memo, Opex and Webcor. Also, the Cicero Blake 45 mentioned earlier suggests Chicago too. I guess he moved from Des Moines to Chicago?

10 releases on the label, which I don't have time to type up in full right now, but can later if someone doesn't beat me to it.

Info found in the R&B Indies book.

Come On Home is a superb cheapie for fans of the doo-wop/early soul crossover stuff.

what are those things on the logo?

101 The Blendtones - Lovers / Dear Diary
102 The Casualtones - Summer School / The Very End
103 Little Larry - Loretta / Ride With Me
104 Tiny Dee & the Dots - Telegraph / My Honey
105 The Blendtones - The Slide / Come On Home
106 Jimmy McHugh - I Don't Want Everything / Do the Kangaroo
107 Oscar Boyd - When Things Get A Little Better / Sweet Little Things You Do
108 Cicero Blake - See What Tomorrow Brings / Don't Do This To Me
109 The Extensions - I Want To Know / My Need
110 The Martinels - Baby Think It Over / I Don't Care

you rock. thanks.

Prices have gone up since I got mine. They used to be $75 each. I never pulled the trigger on the blues or gospel books.
