Wow, that opening riff of Glitter and Gold sounds just like "Last Train to Clarksville." !

This one by the Last Words is a new favorite

This isn't the same Last Words who were later on Atco, are they?

Found it in Lakewood, Ohio - Jen

Sounds like you found a lot of cool 45s while on the road.

cometothesunshine:

I didn't do as much shopping on this trip MW, but I got lucky in a few spots
  6:31pm
uptownjen:

You’re right! It was on a Nuggets comp. I thought it sounded familiar.

Love this one - so breezy

cometothesunshine:

Memphis 1968 never sounded more soulful
Avatar 6:36pm
cometothesunshine:

This Fish N Chips single is the record that I have EQ'd the most on any show in 12 years - it had no bass whatsoever
  6:37pm
Jay S.:

Sounds good here
Avatar 6:39pm
cometothesunshine:

Thanks, Jay!
  6:40pm
Jay S.:

Sounds a bit like Micky Dolenz singing Neil Diamond
  6:40pm
Jay S.:

"Mary Jane" that is
Avatar 6:40pm
cometothesunshine:

There's a lot of that going 'round!
  6:42pm

Mercury had so many great singles in 1968

Billy Joel’s Hassles?

cometothesunshine:

I think this may be my favorite Billy Joel record that I have ever heard.
  6:50pm
uptownjen:

Sounds like him...
  6:51pm
Jay S.:

Amazing how the creativity of these late 60s singles still shines through 50 years later.

Ladies & Gents - THE ROBBS

Minerwerks:

I was really struck by "Time Is On Your Side" ... I did see another version with a writing credit to Bob Long / Peter Mizen: www.discogs.com...
Avatar 7:01pm
cometothesunshine:

MW - think it is on the Majority Rainbow Rocking Chair CD - sound like the correct writers
Avatar 7:03pm
cometothesunshine:

This album is so much better than I remembered
Avatar 7:03pm
Minerwerks:

And I see their last single as The Majority was a song by the Brothers Gibb...
Avatar 7:05pm
cometothesunshine:

Yes - another one played on a previous show. The flipside of Time Is On Your Side is one of my favorite songs, Charlottte Rose by George Alexander
Avatar 7:07pm
cometothesunshine:

I wonder if Snuff Garrett even showed up for this session or if this song is a purely a Leon production
  7:10pm
Jay S.:

Per Wikipedia, The Robbs were the kings of "bubbling under" without ever breaking the top 100
Avatar 7:11pm
cometothesunshine:

Still struck how for a teeny bopper LP this is so solid - song for song
Avatar 7:12pm
cometothesunshine:

Such a good Sloan/Barri
Avatar 7:12pm
cometothesunshine:

Never heard a demo for it
Avatar 7:13pm
cometothesunshine:

I am still so in awe of Phil Sloan as a writer - he had such a gift
Avatar 7:13pm
cometothesunshine:

And you can totally hear him on vocals & guitar
  7:14pm
Jay S.:

Maybe that it's largely a compilation album of singles might explain its consistent quality
  7:14pm
Danny (your brother):

You know my Dad worked with Snuff Garrett back in the day...
Avatar 7:14pm
cometothesunshine:

I agree - Jay S
Avatar 7:15pm
cometothesunshine:

I wasn't aware of that Dan - he never mentioned that - with which artist?
  7:16pm
Danny (your brother):

But of course you knew that about Stan the Man... ;)
Avatar 7:18pm
cometothesunshine:

I know mostly about Willie Bobo, Sonny & Cher, Buffalo Springfield & Trini Lopez

I spent a very enjoyable evening chatting with The Robbs many years ago - they were very nice guys.
Avatar 7:25pm
cometothesunshine:

They worked with my hero, Del Shannon
  7:28pm
Jay S.:

"End of the Week" sounds a bit like Del
Avatar 7:29pm
cometothesunshine:

Very Beach Boys
  7:31pm
Jay S.:

There a lot of versatility in these singles
Avatar 7:32pm
cometothesunshine:

Yeah, they didn't have an identifiable sound - probably their biggest problem. They were mainly a cover band.
  7:34pm
Jay S.:

As great as these records are, I can see how they could have been lost in the shuffle in that time period
  7:36pm
Jay S.:

Compared to something like The Grass Roots, which had very radio-ready singles
Avatar 7:42pm
cometothesunshine:

they went country-rock and became Cherokee
  7:44pm
Jay S.:

You can hear that direction in these Dunhill singles
  7:46pm
uptownjen:

Nice Buddy Holly cover...I like these Cherokee tracks.
Avatar 7:46pm
cometothesunshine:

Yeah - nice stuff - produced by Steve Barri
Avatar 7:49pm
Minerwerks:

Call me crazy, but I've liked every version I've heard of this song better than the Byrds version...
Avatar 7:49pm
cometothesunshine:

I love the Byrds version!

I'm weird, I know!
