old record nut 13th Dec 2019		Vinyl Album The Five Royales - The Five Royales Sing Laundromat Blues	At least it has reproduction on the back cover so as you wont be fooled by the Apollo label.
old record nut 13th Dec 2019		Vinyl Album The Five Keys - The Connoisseur Collection Of The Five Keys (1974)	great album.
old record nut 13th Dec 2019		Vinyl Album Ralph Flanagan And His Orchestra - Dance To The Top Pops (1952)	Hit #5 on the BB Album chart.This title was also a 45 rpm album of 4 records WP 3084.
old record nut 10th Dec 2019		Vinyl Album Freddy Weller - Freddy Weller (1975)	When I found the album in the close out bin at the five and dime I thought it was old material that Dot had picked up, but it turns out to be a short time he spent on ABC-Dot records making these sessions in 1975. A1 & B1 were BB Country hits then he went back to Columbia.
old record nut 10th Dec 2019		Vinyl Album Rosemary Clooney - Rosemary Clooney Sings Country Hits From The Heart (1963)	Pop singers as a general rule don't sing the way a country artist does and this is the case here. Rosie however does a great job with these songs and some are produced by Chet and have his "Nashville sound" and others are a long way from real country.
old record nut 10th Dec 2019		Vinyl Album The Tokens - Re-Doo-Wopp (1988)	Disco doo wopp! Crazy man crazy!
old record nut 10th Dec 2019		Vinyl Album Dinah Washington And Brook Benton - The Two Of Us (1960)	Mine must be a later reissue because it has the "Skyscraper" label.Same cat. # and all twelve songs.
old record nut 9th Dec 2019		Vinyl Album Fats Waller - The Vocal Fats Waller (1972)	Back of cover has session notes as well as recording dates. Important to people like me who want to know that stuff as well as info.about the artist.Great album!
old record nut 9th Dec 2019		Vinyl Album Bobby Vee - With Strings And Things (1961)	By 1961 a string section was standard fair in Rock 'N' Roll a trend that became obvious in and beyond 1959 even with real rockers like Fats Domino with strings in his 1960 hits.This is the rock, or should I say "Pop" of the early 60s.
old record nut 7th Dec 2019		Vinyl Album Vanity 6 - Vanity 6 (1982)	A 1 was a #7 BB R&B hit that is sometimes credited to Vanity a solo artist who is in this group. Vanity 6 is : Vanity the solo artist with several hits of her own (Denise Mathews),Susan Moonsie & Brenda Bennett,the latter two were part of the group Apollonia 6.Vanity 6 was formed by Prince...and then there's that photo on the cover...
old record nut 5th Dec 2019		Vinyl Album Union - On Strike (1981)	I'm guessing Bachman had a parting of the ways with Sparks, Pierce, & Baird (Ironhorse) and Union was the result.
old record nut 2nd Dec 2019		Vinyl Album Big Joe Turner - Rock This Joint	Newly recorded songs.
old record nut 25th Nov 2019		Vinyl Album Richard Torrance And Eureka - Belle Of The Ball (1975)	Eureka is Gary Rowles,Dennis Mansfield, Richard Cantu,Jon Lamb, & Duane Scott.
old record nut 25th Nov 2019		Vinyl Album Merle Travis - The Best Of Merle Travis (1967)	I don't understand why Capitol left his two #1 Country hits off this album.
old record nut 21st Nov 2019		Vinyl Album Three Dog Night - Hard Labor (1974)	The way my gate fold is put together the bandage picture is the back cover.
old record nut 20th Nov 2019		Vinyl Album George Thorogood And The Destroyers - Maverick (1985)	Inner sleeve is from Bad to the Bone LP. On the black side top right is ST-17076. Mod Edit: Inner Sleeve moved to correct entry.
old record nut 20th Nov 2019		Vinyl Album Crescendos - 'Sweet Dreams About ...' (1991)	I'm somewhat suspicious of this record because on the label is "All rights of the producer and of the work reproduced reserved. Unauthorised copying hiring lending, public performance and broadcasting of this record prohibited" as would be seen on British records and yet at the bottom of the label is " All songs BMI". It could be a boot.
old record nut 19th Nov 2019		Vinyl Album The Marc Tanner Band - No Escape (1979)	A4 #45 BB top 100 hit. The only one they had.
old record nut 19th Nov 2019		Vinyl Album Pat Suzuki - Pat Suzuki (1958)	This album is sometimes referred to as Pat Suzuki - Miss Pony Tail however the front cover and record label show the title as Pat Suzuki and there is no reference to her nick name. It is however printed on the back cover and on the spine.
old record nut 18th Nov 2019		Vinyl Album Diana Ross And The Supremes - Supremes Greatest Hits (1967)	My copy has a stamped "H" in the dead wax however on all 4 sides it is scratched out.I thought mine was a reissue because I got it in the 70s. It has a 1 1/2 inch gold band attached to edge of the Ross portrait that showed on the outside of the cover, and all the pictures are attached together in one strip.Record one has side 1 & 2 record two has side 3 & 4 .
old record nut 16th Nov 2019		Vinyl Album Supa - Supa's Jamboree (1971)	My copy has "County" on both the label and the jacket back and inside the gatefold.
old record nut 13th Nov 2019		Vinyl Album Pop Stoneman - Pop Stoneman Memorial Album (1968)	Pop Stoneman was said to be the only country artist to have recorded songs on Edison cylinders and modern Stereo records.
old record nut 13th Nov 2019		Vinyl Album The Stompers - One Heart For Sale (1984)	The two hits on this album are: Never Tell An Angel BB # 88 & One Heart For Sale BB # 110 just below the hot 100.

old record nut 11th Nov 2019		Vinyl Album Amii Stewart - Paradise Bird (1979)	Inside photo worth the price of the album !
old record nut 8th Nov 2019		Vinyl Album Ray Stevens - The Best Of Ray Stevens (1970)	Mercury would have done better to reissue the 1962 Ahab album because the original Ahab The Arab is not on this one.The Ahab live track is introduced by Ralph Emery and is from another Mercury album of a DJ convention titled Saturday Night Shindig.
old record nut 3rd Nov 2019		Vinyl Album Stealers Wheel - Stealers Wheel (1973)	My copy is on Pickwick SPC-3705 (1979)
old record nut 13th Oct 2019		Vinyl Album Red Sovine - The Country Way (1968)	The record number falls into 1967 but the music is much older. These budget labels hold a treasure of great oldies.
