I started aquiring 45's in December 1958 and continue to the present. Collecting seriously beginning ca. 1975. Anything on 45 RPM from 1949 to 1990 interests me. Happy to chat any time.

Phantom Gtowner 21st Feb 2024		Vinyl Album The Beach Boys - Surf's Up	Review If the Beach Boys previous LP "Sunflower" has been described by some as Dennis Wilson's LP, this one should be called Carl's album. I thought this was the record where Carl really came into his own. But that's not all that's happening on this very fine record, one of their best of the 1970's. 3 people found this review helpful. ✔︎ Helpful Review?
Phantom Gtowner 7th Sep 2021		Vinyl Album Herb Alpert's Tijuana Brass - Whipped Cream And Other Delights	Definitely "What Now My Love" was originally on Quality. He was still incredibly hot at the time of its release (circa May 1966) so there has to be a few copies out there somewhere.
Phantom Gtowner 3rd Sep 2021		Vinyl Album Herb Alpert's Tijuana Brass - Whipped Cream And Other Delights	This would have been available on the Quality label for roughly 15 months after it's spring 1965 release. It was roughly August/September 1966 when it would have been issued on A&M.
Phantom Gtowner 3rd Sep 2021		Vinyl Album Bobby Rydell - Forget Him	I thought I heard it was Tony Hatch.
Phantom Gtowner 7th Mar 2021		Vinyl Album Wings - Wild Life	Review Unlike its two predecessors, it sounds like it was thrown together very quickly. Most of it is disposable. "Some People Never Know" and "Dear Friend" are decent ballads but “Mumbo” “Love Is Strange” and “Bip Bop” are absolute time wasters. The title tune "Wild Life" sounds like a plagiarism of CSNY's "Almost Cut My Hair". Of his first three LP's, it is by far the least enjoyable. 7 people found this review helpful. ✔︎ Helpful Review?
