United Travel Service - Gypsy Eyes/ Echo Of You

 Here is another one from the recent big buy. And Holy Crap Batman, while rooting around in the box I also found a test pressing copy...WHAAAATTTTT! 

Rubin - You've Been Away/Baby, You're My Everything

Here is another monster I picked up in the last big lot I bought

Jan Bradley - I'm Over You/ The Brush Off

60's girl sound I so love. This one came from the closed 1972 record store. This was a bigger hit on the R&B chart (#24) than the hot 100 (#93). I read she retired and later became a Social Worker. 

Bobby Vee - Come Back When You Grow Up

I am not sure that Bobby Vee gets the respect he deserves. He had a few huge smash hits, lots of lower chart hits and alot of songs that never hit the charts. This was a #3 Gold single for him and I almost put this as a Sunday classic. There were few Bobby Vee songs being played on oldies stations when I was growing up but this was one of them.. I had been looking for this compact 33 1/3 promo and was happy to recently finally get a copy. Next assignement is to find a Liberty 33 1/3 sleeve for it although that sleeve is probably not technically correct for this release.  

Violent Femmes- Gone Daddy Gone / Good Feeling

How about a modern classic for this fine wonderful Tuesday Morning. My dad bought us a satellite dish in 1983 or 1984...huge sucker...I was sure when they installed it that we would be able to talk to receive messages from E.T. One of the benefits was MTV and I remember turning it on and seeing the video for this song...still love to watch it. I didn't buy the LP right away...waited until I was in college but man was it a favorite. Found this rarity a few years back and not an easy one to find. 

The Rock A Teens- Woo Hoo

Warm weather has returned...WOO HOO...I know we will have some cool weather still but nothing like the warm weather we have had the past few days. When I think of this song I can't help of Kill Bill and the Japanese female punk band The 5-6-7-8's...if you have not heard their version....youtube it

Rev. Oris Mays - Don't Let The Devil Ride

 The lead yesterday did not pan out. I arrived at the persons home, called them, then rang doorbell. A woman answered the door, said "you are here for the records.", then went back the house and then her significant other never came out. After 20 minutes, I rang the doorbell again and no answer so I left. The person later called me 3 hours later and wanted to know if I wanted to come back out (30 minute drive). I said maybe next weekend, he said someone was looking at them tomorrow. I asked him to tell me a few of the 45s and he read out Yacht rocks greatest hits.. Ugh...
