Johnny Maddox - The Crazy Otto Medley (1955)

Charted at #2 on Billboard Hot 100 in February 1955. This is a medley of songs originally recorded by Fritz Schulz-Reichel, the original Crazy Otto. Because Johnny had such a huge hit with this record, he began to also become known as "Crazy Otto" in some circles, which created much confusion. The songs included are: "Ivory Rag" by Lou Busch and Jack Elliott, "Play a Simple Melody" by Irving Berlin, "In der Nacht ist der Mensch nicht gern alleine" by Franz Grothe, "Das machen nur die Beine von Dolores" by Michael Jary and "Was macht der alte Seemann". Original Billboard review: "This hokey item is so corny that it sounds fresh, as played here by Maddox. It is a medley of rhythmic tunes. The original version on the German Polydor label here has been getting action in the West for weeks. It's for the pop and country fields and jukeboxes." B-side is "Humoresque".
