This might be my favorite version of Steppin' Stone. Please post your favorite version.

As a post script, I wonder if she ever snagged a copy.

Only 75 copies were pressed. Bootleg copies of this 45 exist in vast quantities, they have "ORBIT-A" and "ORBIT-B" scratched in the deadwax area. According to Tim Warren (Crypt Records) : "A band so hated in Detroit, they had to change their name after every show they played! The guitarist met...

Some Michigan madness that I've never heard before.

Also bought this comp on Crypt many years ago. One of Tim's best second only to his Twistin' Rumble!! series.

Any and all of the 13 Buttshakers! Soul Party comp LP's and this great novelty soul nugget.

Many years ago my best friend in high school Michael Venn's parents were moving back to Michigan (Saginaw to be exact) and they offered me a box of vinyl. As you might expect they were mostly common LP's but there were several 45's. The LP's ended up being donated but one 7'' (there were...

Both songs are great! Thanks for sharing!

Just in case you're thirsty here is a Barq's Root Beer ad Circa mid 60's. It's not on the 45 label but Don Cole is reponsible for it.

I miss drive-ins. The only one left in New Hampshire is down the street from me. The last film I saw there was Kill Bill Vol. 2 and I couldn't help but think that was EXACTLY how Tarantino wanted it to be seen.

In 1960 the Marquis Chimps (Enoch, Susie, Baron and Hans) were signed to appear in a trio of television commercials for Brooke Bond Foods, makers of Red Rose Tea. The commercials featured the chimps in parodies of a Wild West shoot out, a golf match and the most popular, a wild nightclub with a...
