Hardcover. Condición: Near Fine. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Near Fine. Not a book but a 12-inch, 33-1/3 rpm vinyl disc, Lost Nite Records LPs 123, near-mint vinyl in a near-mint cardboard jacket. WMCA New York "Number One night-time disc jockey" Gary Stevens is credited with assembling these 22 cuts, and it is indeed a better than usual assemblage, including The Knickerbockers' "Lies," Del Shannon's "Runaway," The Shirelles' "Will You Love Me Tomorrow," Bobby Lewis with "Tossin' & Turnin'," The Chiffons' "Sweet Talkin' Guy," Syndicate of Sound with "Little Girl," of course Rick Derringer and The McCoys' "Hang On Sloopy," and "Sally Go Round the Roses," credited to the Jaynettes, though Nick Tosches in his book "Save the Last Dance for Satan" does an archaeological job on the song, highlighting Hy Weiss, owner of Old Town Records, and Zell Sanders, co-writer and producer, as key players. Sanders, along with Lona Stevens (wife of producer Abner Spector), crafted the song's enigmatic lyrics, inspired by children's rhymes but imbued with dark, ambiguous themes while Spector recorded up to 20 individual vocalists, layering them to create the song's haunting, echo-rich sound.

Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Good. Cover photo by Nick Samardge Ilustrador. 1st Edition. Not a book but a 12-inch, 33-1/3 rpm record album, Bang 211, very-good-plus vinyl in a good-only cardboard jacket. With a couple of exceptions (the Stones' "Satisfaction") this is an album of tunes by Feldman, Goldstein & Gottehrer, produced by Bob Feldman, Jerry Goldstein, and Richard Gottehrer. The three performers shown to the cover with the African drums, identified as Australian sheepherders Miles, Niles and Giles Strange, who grew independently wealthy by registering "the now famous longhair sheep known as the Gottehrer sheep"? What are the chances they may actually be record producers Bob Feldman, Jerry Goldstein, and Richard Gottehrer? As producers, they'd scored a hit in 1963 with the Angels' "My Boyfriend's Back." But by 1964, the girl group sound in which FGG Productions specialized was going out of fashion, due to the British Invasion. Deciding that they could not convincingly fake British accents, they opted to pretend to be Australians sheep-herders, Gottehrer later telling Bill Kopp of "Record Collector": "Nobody in the US in 1965 really knew any Australians." By early 1966, the lineup performing as "The Strangeloves" on tour were FGG studio musicians guitarist Jack Raczka (Giles Strange), drummer/vocalist Joe Piazza (Miles Strange), and keyboardist/ vocalist Ken Jones (Niles Strange). Their songs have since been recorded by David Bowie, Bauhaus, The J. Geils Band, The Fleshtones, Aaron Carter, George Thorogood, and Bow Wow Wow. Now reduced from $17.

No Binding. Condición: Very Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. Not books but a group of six, 7-inch, 45 rpm vinyl singles from the year 1965. These vinyl records will play well; they generally grade "very good" with small, scattered scuffs and scratches (though The Zombies "Want You Back Again" is "good only.") The labels show some rub from being stored together without individual protective sleeves; a few have a Previous Owner's Name written in pen to at least one label. NONE of these vinyl 45s are shiny new, NONE of them grade "near mint." But at a very reasonable price you get six ORIGINAL RELEASES including Stevie Wonder's "Uptight (Everything's Alright) / Purple Rain Drops" (Tamla 54124) and "I Want Candy / It's About My Baby" (Bang B-501) by possibly Australia's best-known sheep-farming trio, Bob Feldman, Jerry Goldstein, and Richard Gottehrer, here dubbed "The Strangeloves," but perhaps better known for discovering Rick Derringer (among others) and producing such iconic hits as "My Boyfriend's Back" and "Hang on Sloopy." A group of six mid '60s 45 rpm "singles" combined into a lot at one price to consolidate shipping charges, the lot now reduced from $25.
