A few 7" odds & ends I seem to have acquired in the last week or so.
I do already have a copy of this but this fresh one is in way better condition.
Not as groovy as I imagined but hey, it was only 50p.
Maybe not as awful as it could have been, I didn't even know he'd made any records until I found this.
Someone else who's music had passed me by all these years, a singer who became famous for her complete lack of rhythm, pitch, tone and overall singing ability from liner notes:
"After a taxicab crash in 1943 she found she could sing 'a higher F than ever before'. Instead of a lawsuit against the taxicab company, she sent the driver a box of expensive cigars."
A far more enjoyable singer (and harpist) was Miss Russell-Fergusson who's beautiful track The Lochan was featured on a mix I recorded for Tak Tent_Radio recently.

A nice pair of picture sleeves singles I found in the same box.
The only pair of singles released by the family folk group from Dundee including one singing the praises of the Discovery ship
launched in 1901 and the last traditional wooden three-masted ship to be built in the UK, she's still docked at the sea front.
3 beautiful red vinyl records of Beatrix Potter tales, also available on blue, green and black vinyl too.
Another 3 records which are on mottled blue, green, red and black were these Greek discs from the 60's including one by Mikis Theodorakis.
