Greg Kihn - Sorry

It seems like this happens all the time. I hear a song, fall in love with it and then when researching it, find I already have it...in this case 2 copies in fact. I had picked up some Greg Kihn lp's over the past few months, including a coup that were sealed. Of course I opened them and have been playing the crap out of them. I just flipped out over this song and of course realized it was the B side of a 45 I had 2 copies of that I doubt I ever played. This song is light years better than the A side cover and is right in the power pop style that I have been grooving on recently. I have more Greg Kihn 45's that will grace this blog in the future

U2- Sunday Bloody Sunday

 Oh the memories this song brings to me. The LP War was released during my senior year in high school and this song exploded out of the radio. Why it was never released as a 45 during that time is a mystery to me as I am sure it would have been huge. I remember buying WAR on vinyl and taking it my girlfriends house to listen to it. Still my favorite U2 album. This 45 was put out a few years after the release of War and features a live version of Gloria on the b side (although the label says it was on October)

Dusty Springfield - Breakfast in Bed

Nothing like being a wake since 3am. Quite ridiculous so I decided to get up and spin some 45's. I recorded Dusty last week..not one to just lay in bed or have breakfast in bed. Picked up the stock copy in the radio station buy years ago and the promo is a recent acquistion. I also recently picked up a nice copy of her Memphis Lp.
