 BILLY SHARPE & HIS SHARPTONES
Kudo 45-668
"Hippitty Hop  b/w  Stars In My Eyes"

The last 45 released on the legendary R&B pioneer Robert (Bob) West's short-lived Detroit based
 KUDO label in '58, (home to both Marv Johnson & Brian Holland's debut 45's, as well as
 The Falcons' second 45), was one of only a handful of total releases (we believe 8) for the label.
This rare 2-sided gem features a rockin' A-side (with 2 instrumental breaks), along with an equally terrific doo-wop B-side!
Seldom seen on EBAY, is this particular 45 the finest example in existence? 
 Appears virtually unplayed, with extremely high gloss!
As for info on Billy Sharpe (aka Billy Sharp) - it appears the group (like the Kudo label itself)
 faded away into Detroit's R&B music history......
