Teresa Brewer - Pledging My Love (1955)

Charted at #17 on Billboard chart in March 1955. Competing version of the Johnny Ace hit which also charted at #17 on the pop chart, and #1 on the R&B chart. Remakes by Roy Hamilton, Elvis Presley and Johnny Tillotson also charted in different years. Original Billboard review: “The hefty Johnny Ace click is traced in a knowing performance by the carnary. This will please many, many listeners. Coupling of these two big tunes should make this disk figure strongly in juke boxes during the next few months“. Written by Fats Washington & Don Robey. B-side is “How Important Can It Be“.
