Artist Biography by Jason Ankeny (ALL MUSIC GUIDE)

The Hollywood Saxons were longtime mainstays of the Los Angeles R&B circuit, performing under a

 series of names during their checkered recording career. According to Marv Goldberg's profile in the

 September 1977 edition of Yesterday's Memories, the group formed in the wake of mid-1956 pickup 

basketball game -- lead Stan Beverly, second tenor Bill Brooks, baritone Joe Lewis, and bass Charles 

Taggart began harmonizing while dressing in the locker room. After browsing an encyclopedia in search

 of a noble, powerful name, Lewis dubbed the group the Saxons. About nine months into their existence,

 Brooks exited, and following the addition of second tenor Maudice Giles, the lineup expanded to five 

when Nathaniel "Buster" Wilson signed on to assume bass duties, freeing Taggart to move to first tenor.

After woodshedding for more than a year, the Saxons finally began playing live, and in 1958 signed to 

the tiny Our label for "Please Be My Love Tonight." At year's end they signed with the Contender label, 

already home to a rival Saxons led by the R&B pioneer Jesse Belvin -- producer George Motola simply

 renamed his newest act the Capris for 1959's "Endless Love," issued on his Tender subsidiary. When 

the record failed to generate much excitement, the Saxons/Capris again moved on, this time signing

 to Capitol for "Close to You," credited to the Portraits. As if the waters weren't muddied enough, in

 September 1960 the trio of Beverly, Lewis, and Taggart convened as the Tuxedos to cut "Trouble" 

for Motola's Forte label.

When none of the name changes or label moves panned out, Beverly co-founded his own imprint, Entra,

 and in 1961 the quintet issued "Everyday Is a Holiday," credited to The Hollywood Saxons. Subsequently

 licensed to L.A. indies including Swingin' and Elf, the record proved by some distance to be their biggest 

hit, and its follow-up, "It's You," appeared on Elf in late 1962. The Hollywood Saxons returned to Entra the

 following year for "Diamonds." In 1964, Beverly mounted a new imprint, Action Pack, home to the group's

 "Loving You." After cutting "Sweet Talking Girl" for True Soul as the Jolly Jesters, the quintet splintered. 

When Beverly revived Action Pack in 1968, he assembled a clutch of unreleased Hollywood Saxons sides 

For a pair of EPs, and that same year a resurrected Swingin' issued another unreleased effort, "Laughing Girl."

NM (Near Mint): Record and cover appear virtually unmarked.

VG++: A hair under near mint may have just a very few visual marks that should not affect sound.

VG+ :  A well cared for record. Should have only very slight if any audible imperfections.

VG : Many only surface lines or may have 1 or more small scratches .Background sound but still very enjoyable. Cover defects will be noted.

VG-: significant background sound from various defects but music always quite audible above it. Cover has some damage that will be noted.

100% ACCURACY IN GRADING RECORDS IS A JOB FOR SUPERMAN!

At times defects will show up differently on different players.  For instance,

depending on the weight that a tone arm is set at or the quality of the stylus

what is just a pop on one player can sometimes be a skip on another

SO IF YOU HAVE A PROBLEM, BEFORE RATING ME ,
