The music of the 1950s and 1960s lives again on MusicMaster Online Worldwide! Hear the big hits, little hits, songs that should have been hits, songs that helped create rock and roll, and lots of other surprises.
I'm probably wrong about Jumpin Judge being issued before The Flying Saucer. Thanks again to Gary Myers for some good background info! It may not have been first, but there's a very good chance it was the first Break In released after The Flying Saucer. The timing had to be very close!

"The Flyer Saucer" charted on 8/4/56, so it appears that the former could not have preceded the latter (esp when you consider that LTGTR must have been out for at least a couple of wks before they would have sampled it for the break-in). #2: You know where they ask the saucer man (in "Flying Saucer") if he has come to conquer the earth and the answer is gibberish? That's actually "secretary of defense" (from elsewhere on the record) backwards. Funny story about how a friend and I discovered that circa 1957.?
