Things don't improve much on the uptempo side. In fact, if you can get through the first four bars of ''The Good Guy Always Wins'' without losing your cookies, you're made of sterner stuff than most Sun fans. Again, blame the chorus who must have thought they were accompanying a Wagnerian opera.

Roberts himself is another of the unknown artists who seemed to populate Sun's 300 series. His contracts were mailed to a town called Norman Park, Georgia on May 12, 1960, but beyond that little is known. (HD) (MH)
