My feeble attempt at documenting my record collection and music obsession.

Mystics - Snoopy
I picked this up a month ago. From what I can gather, this was a loose cover of the Vibrations My Girl Sloopy and inspired the McCoys after they heard it. Of course the McCoys had the monster version and the Mystics are an obscure footnote
It's rumored that "Snoopy" by The Mystics was a minor hit in Akron, Ohio where the McCoys heard it and recorded the tune (as "Hang On Sloopy"), turning it into a big commercial success.
