What a busy day. Diggin through the radio station find today and found a few cool 45's like tonight's post. Sam Cooke had the perfect voice for spiritual songs. Look, another "B" side
My feeble attempt at documenting my record collection and music obsession.

Dee Dee Warwick - Yours Until Tomorrow
Friday night soul. I have so much cool 45's I have picked up the last few months but have had limited chance to scan and record them. That is not a bad thing as I have plenty of stuff scanned and recorded and I will get to the new stuff. This is one of those 45's I picked up earlier in the year. A killer Goffen and King song, I have always loved any version of this song. I have a version by Baby Ray that kills...I can't believe I have not uploaded that on...hmmm, another on the list of things to do. So it seems Open Drive has made some changes and I can't make an audio player. So I played around with watching a youtube video on embedding an audio player. Seems to work just fine.

Chuck Berry - Come On
My favorite Chuck Berry song. I have looked for this for quite a while and found it in Maryland thanks to my new record collector friend. I love it when that elusive item comes your way..

Dixie Humming Birds - I'll Keep On Living After I Die
Yes, I have been off the blog for a bit. But I have had a busy few weeks. First, I went at the start of the month to see my friend in Maryland for a few days. Had a great time and in the process made a new record collector friend. I managed to score some nice 45's from him, of which tonight's post is one of them [although the 45 is somewhat rough condition]. I have some fantastic Peacock 45's but had never seen any on red vinyl and I picked up 2. Perfect gospel.
As I was driving home from Maryland I was thinking how I have way too many records and need to start selling them to free up space but then what do I do, I go and buy about 12,000 45s earlier this week. I won't go into the whole story here but I they were from an unpicked find- yes unpicked. There are bit more Country 45's than I would have liked [probably at least half of the find] but the rest were 60's [with some 70's] rock and soul and most are promos. Found some items I have looked for awhile for, although I have not had the opportunity to go through all the boxes and boxes and boxes. I figure to set up a website at some point to start trying to sell stuff I don't want. Stay tuned.
