ANOTHER Clin- Richard winner—“it's all in the game'’ (Columbia DB 7089). It’s a number which Tommy Edwards took to the lop of the charts live years ago. b u t Cliff

Denver’s disc of “Stilj” and fore­ cast i t would prove a money spinner for him. I ’ve ju s t heard another very good performance of the same a ttractive piece by Ken Dodd (.Columbia DB 7094). I think Karl wins by a short head—but i t ’s a near thing 1
