Scott?

I might have seen you play with your mom YEARS ago in Chambersburg. You might have played a sax or piano! LOL Sorry, I don't remember!

Give your mom a big hug! She is just so darn nice and fabulous! My wife and I always tried to make it if we saw she was playing at the Washington Crossing Inn, Blue Ram, or Yardley Inn.

A friend in Florida described her playing at Disney, and I was like "Oh Man! I know who you saw!", from the time she was in Florida! She's awesome...

I did a little digging and found out that Red Label was based in Montclair, NJ and run by Ernest Robinson. The only other reference that I can see about a Barbara Trent who modeled for Ebony Fashion Fairs in the early 1960's. I am gathering that they are one and the same, but I cannot confirm. Actor Judy Pace also did some modeling.

Barbara Trent used to live with my parents in Columbus, Ohio. The person who had the band she sang with then was called Macy(sp?).

Hmmm... I recently unsuccessfully bid on ebay for this fantastic 45. I hope it wasn't you that "stole" it from me! :D Once again... thanks for sharing!
