The Mike
Hanks Story
Mah's - MRC - Exit
45's |
|
Billy Kent's 45 was picked by Roulette and the local
pressings have Mike's Beaubien (misspelled Beachien) address
printed on the label. |
MAH'S label
The
letters are Mike's initials.
There
were no MAH'S releases between 1963 and 1968; then The Magic
Tones had their hit, "Together, We Shall Overcome."
The
last two 45s were distributed by Ric-Tic Records.

MRC label
This
acronym is probably from Mike Hanks, Renaldo
Jackson and Chuck Hentley's names - they were the
songwriters on both sides of the first release. Its
catalogue number slots into those of MAH'S.

Exit label
Some
of the Exit label's catalogue numbers seem to correlate with
the latter ones on MAH'S: 12, 13 and 15.
Vivian Collins recorded a vocal version of guitarist Eddie
Willis's "Answer Me" that was released on the Serock label.
The
lead singer of The Paragons was Doris Edwards - before she
became Dee Edwards.
