Dora Hall Sings Pop Country

King Of The Road
Dora Hall Sings Pop Country
Cozy Records, Chicago, IL
SP-102

The songs were arranged & conducted by H. B. Barnum, Stu Phillips and Jimmy Haskell.

Dora Hall has been deemed the "Queen" of vanity entertainment. Hall was married to Leo Hulseman, the founder of the immensely successful Solo Cup Company. Apparently Leo was happy to finance dozens of record releases for Dora, all of which were given away free of charge with packages of plastic cups and plates during the 1960's. This information comes from a website dedicated to Hall: http://dorahall.tvheaven.com/

From the back cover: Her versatility is recognized by her outstanding renditions of both Rock and Roll and Pop-Country music. Dora Hall is an exponent of today's young sound. Her warm understanding of today's youth is reflected in her songs.
