Opening our show w/a mystery record! Released by the Nashville label, Look Records circa 1967 - the song “Travel Lightly” was written by Barry De Vorzon (hitmaker as Barry & The Tamerlanes) & 1 of the Addrisi Bros. (who composed such hits as Never My Love). These writers worked together at the Valiant Records label.

But probably not by Mrs. Melcher who found out two years later all her money had been siphoned away

Bruno Kretchmar sings “Wander Boy” incorrectly titled “Wonder Boy” on the label. Despite his wayward vocalizing, Bruno became head of Chrysalis Music in the 1980’s.

Venerable UK outfit, The Casuals, sing “Naughty Boy” produced by Roy Wood of The Move. Issued on 17 October They made reords into the 1970’s. In the United States they were known as the British Casuals - are the British ever casual?

this would have been a great song for Davy

The members of The Freedom - Ray Royer & Bobby Harrison - had recorded “A Whiter Shade Of Pale” with Procol Harum, but were kicked out of the band by Gary Brooker! They made only one incredible single in 1968, this is the B-side.

The Comfortable Chair were from Los Angeles & produced by Doors’ members Robbie Krieger & John Densmore for Lou Adler’s Ode label. They made a cameo appearance in the movie How To Commit Marriage with Bob Hope & Jackie Gleason. Is this a great one? You bet it is!

Late Scottish folk singer, Nancy Whiskey, began making records in the 1950’s; her hit was a version of “Freight Train.” She revisited it 10 yrs later, but the flip of her final 45 of the 60s was the self-written, The Game, hinting at an even greater gift.

Never heard this version

Great batch! You seem to find the best of the forgottens to represent the essence of the late 60's. I'm looking forward to learning about The Happeneings.

This is a great unissued song from an acetate, circa 1968
Avatar 7:06pm
mce1965:

Any idea who wrote it?
Avatar 7:08pm
cometothesunshine:

My guess is Dave Libert & Bob Miranda
Avatar 7:08pm
cometothesunshine:

or The Tokens or Paul Kahan or Brute Force
Avatar 7:09pm
cometothesunshine:

I would imagine Libert/Miranda had a lot of their songs rejected
Avatar 7:09pm
cometothesunshine:

so they could rearrange more standards

I always thought records that had the song titles translated would sound like this...

Thank you for another yeoman's job of programming, Andrew! I will continue listening in the car... it's all Happening...

There are so many Italian only singles, I wonder who convinced these busy groups it was essential for such a small market.
Avatar 7:22pm
cometothesunshine:

take care, mce
Avatar 7:24pm
cometothesunshine:

I guess they had heard the Doors
  7:25pm
Michael Luciano:

Maybe there was some issue with the release if they didn't translate to Italian... You could do a show of U.S. hits in Italian with the original artists signing.

These lyrics by Brute Force are quite amusing when you think of the author

Listening to the podcast so I'm late to the party here, but "I Love Girls" is written by Norman Bergen according to copyright.gov. Thanks for letting us hear it, Andrew!
