"It's Only Love" #31 12/17/1966

The third Top 40 effort for Tommy James and the Shondells. Tommy wrote a book about the head of their label (Roulette Records), Morris Levy, who was notorious for being a control freak and for not being totally forthcoming with royalties due to artists. Tommy estimated Levy owed him something like $30 million. Morris was waaay in deep with the wiseguys and was a basis for the Hesh character in "The Sopranos," but Levy once said the only thing he knew about organized crime was his five ex-wives. Uhhhhhh, yeah.
