I happened to be there with my Canon camera.. I don't remember, an F1 or whatever the name of the camera was .. but I happened to be there and I just, you know, got a hold of Frankie, and we just went into the parking lot and I took a couple of shots, then lo and behold they ended up on the cover - incredible!{quote}Randy Chin: VP Records, Jamaica, Queens, NY, 6th February 2019Frankie Paul: “Hot Number” - released 1962VP Records

The album is Frankie Paul Hot Number. And the big song off of the album was "Kushumpeng."
