old record nut 23rd Aug 2019		Vinyl Album Charlie Ryan - Hot Rod Lincoln Drags Again (1964)	A1 & B 6 were BB pop hits in the U.S. The Stereo version of this album (Hilltop JS-6006) is awful. The mono track is in one channel with an echo and some fiddle player overdubbed in the other channel for depth. It sucks! I'm lucky to have both versions.
old record nut 15th Aug 2019		Vinyl Album The Rowans - Sibling Rivalry (1976)	A4 U.S. bb # 74 top pop hit.
old record nut 15th Aug 2019		Vinyl Album The Rose Garden - The Rose Garden (1968)	The Rose Garden a.k.a. Giant Sunflower (ref. Joel Whitburn 2019)
old record nut 15th Aug 2019		Vinyl Album The Rose Garden - The Rose Garden (1968)	My copy has a pink top half and gold bottom half label.
old record nut 15th Aug 2019		Vinyl Album Robert Gordon - Are You Gonna Be The One (1981)	My copy has the same record number but it is Canadian.(Label says made in Canada, and there is no broadcast license,ASCAP or BMI etc. on the jacket or label).
old record nut 17th Jun 2019		Vinyl Album Nelson Riddle - The Best Of Nelson Riddle (1963)	My copy is a reissue of this album Starline SY-4603, same cover and all 12 tracks. I would guess mid 70s
old record nut 28th May 2019		Vinyl Album Debbie Reynolds - Do It Debbie's Way (1983)	"Switched on swing", crazy! She's looking good at 51.
old record nut 26th May 2019		Vinyl Album Jim Reeves - Jim Reeves (1957)	Reissued in late 60s /early 70s with all 12 songs in mono and the orange label.
old record nut 19th May 2019		Vinyl Album Eddy Arnold And His Guitar - Wanderin' (1955)	At the bottom of the back cover is a trade-mark of Nipper sitting behind an LP record with the phrase "grove guard". This denotes the new RCA shape of their records with a raised label area and raised outer edge so the playing surface won't touch on a changer when the next record drops on the spinning record that has just played.
old record nut 19th May 2019		Vinyl Album The RCA Electronic Music Synthesizer - The Sounds And Music Of The RCA Electronic Music Synthesizer (1955)	OMG It's a vacuum tube Moog !!!
old record nut 17th May 2019		Vinyl Album Billy Rancher And The Unreal Gods - Boom Chuck Rock Now! (1982)	Not sure what to call the type of music this is,sounds like Punk or maybe Psycho- billy or something related to Rockabilly.
old record nut 16th May 2019		Vinyl Album Quincy - Quincy (1980)	Quincy( A.K.A. Lulu Temple) is group consisting of Brian Butler, Metro (Wally Smith), Gerald Emerick, Steve Butler & Bob Holden. This the only album under the name Quincy due to a name dispute with Quincy Jones.
old record nut 15th May 2019		Vinyl Album Roland Shaw And His Orchestra - The Look Of Love (1968)	The U.S. version of this album on the London label (PS 521) is credited to The Pretty Goods With Roland Shaw and his Orchestra.The cover is the same except the artist name.
old record nut 13th May 2019		Vinyl Album Bonnie Pointer - Bonnie Pointer 2 (1979)	I cant find the number 2 anywhere on the album however on the spine "Purple" follows the record number and precedes Motown.
old record nut 13th May 2019		Vinyl Album The Platters - Going Back To Detroit (1967)	Musicor must have wanted to be sure everybody knew The Platters had moved into the new generation with their mod album covers.No question that The Platters were "with it".
old record nut 13th May 2019		Vinyl Album The Platters - 19 Hits (1977)	Last 3 tracks on side A Linda Hayes and The Platters. This is the entire output for the King Federal labels. They had no hits on these labels.B 9 & 10 were unreleased until this album.
old record nut 12th May 2019		Vinyl Album The Pike Family And The Pine Hill Ranchers - To Warm And Comfort You (1969)	I listed the composer as it appeared on the record label however I don't agree with the listing of some of the songs composers.
old record nut 11th May 2019		Vinyl Album Paul And Paula - Sing For Young Lovers (1963)	AKA Jill And Ray on LeCam records.
old record nut 11th May 2019		Vinyl Album Pearl Harbour - Don't Follow Me, I'm Lost Too (1981)	I have read that this album is before the break up with the Explosions and others say that it's after. What ever the case it's a good mix of punk, alt country, rock-a-billy and who knows what!

old record nut 10th May 2019		Vinyl Album Freida Parton - Two-Faced (1984)	Dolly Parton's sister A.K.A. the Janis Joplin of the Smokey Mountains. This is a hard rock album.
old record nut 8th May 2019		Vinyl Album Buck Owens - Buck Owens (1961)	So I'm wondering what you are finding W.B. because it could be a counterfeit of the 1961 album that is worth $100.00 as a collectible album.
old record nut 8th May 2019		Vinyl Album The Johnny Otis Show - Rock 'n' Roll Revue (1982)	A4 Marie Adams & Johnny Otis A 5 & B 5 Marie Adams solo, A6 & B4 Mel Williams solo A7&B7 Marci Lee with Johnny Otis.B 8 Marie Adams and everyone.
old record nut 7th May 2019		Vinyl Album Tony Orlando And Dawn - To Be With You (1976)	As I understand it: Quadra disc A.K.A. CD-4, UD-4, Q4 or Quad8 is better but not compatible with my SQ also called QS or matrix, and also requires a special cartridge. SQ is simpler to set up and cheaper but is confusing to the person who buys a Qurda disc and wonders where the 4 channel is.It's no wonder the whole system went down the cave to who knows where closely followed by betamax another fight of ideas that should have been worked out before it went to market.
old record nut 6th May 2019		Vinyl Album Osanna - L'Uomo (2018)	I have the 1971 issue as a used copy.

old record nut 6th May 2019		Vinyl Album Various Artists - Rare Rock `N` Roll Volume One (1979)	Unlike most "rare" song albums this one does not have any amateur sounding artist. This is all quality stuff.A 10 is a rewrite of Sexy Ways a Hank Ballard and the Midnighters hit.I don't know if this was the only volume but I could never find anymore.It's a great collection.
old record nut 6th May 2019		Vinyl Album Ohio Players - Honey (1975)	The Ohio Players have some of the best covers there is with this one at the top.
old record nut 6th May 2019		Vinyl Album Alan O'Day - Oh Johnny! (1979)	Good album too bad it didn't produce any top 100 U.S. hits.
old record nut 6th May 2019		Vinyl Album Oak Ridge Boys - Bobbie Sue (1982)	Country but not so you would know it.B3 is a good cover of The Band hit as is A5 of The Fiestas 1959 hit.
