Brown's 'Aaao Omanao'

The album was released a few months later and proved sid nathan's judgment utterly, utterly wrong. It became the 30 second biggest selling album of 19 63 - an amazing achievement given that it was leased on a small, independent label which dealt almost exclusively in singles. The album spent 66 weeks on the album charts, making number two on the chart, the pop album charts,. There wasn't an arvan b albums chart until 19 65, and life at the apollo basically forced billboard to create one, and more or less single hand ly created the r an b albums market. Brown turned from merely a relatively big aran b star into a maga star.
