Sides review on the 17 Nov, 1958 Billboard magazine...


BABY.
The boys sell this rocka- ballad with warmth and feeling while a chick does a descant In the backing. A record with a sound and one that has a chance for some coin.

SLOW DOWN.
Uptempo effort is handed a bright vocal by the Forevers over nifty backing.

Without any success they broke up and Sandra Daley will record a single in 1961. the disc is produced by Tom Esopa who also writes one of the songs, "Ooh La La" / "My Only Cure Is You" for the record label TJ records and in 1962 Tom Esopa backed by an unknown group, recorded "Fifteenth Down The Line" / "How Deep Is The Ocean" billed as Tommy Sawyer & The Twains for Diamond records.

The Forevers were from the town next to me. I lived in Oceanside, Long Island,NY and I believe the group was from Lynbrook. The group performed at my high school dance in 1959. The local TV Repair shop had a box of the current 45's that were being played on the radio. They had copies of the Forevers record, and I bought one. I still have it.
