Here's something we've never done yet, in all the years we've been posting lewd photos of 60s garage 45s. The idea for this thread is to post scans or photos of records that logically "go together" in sets. Maybe by label, by artist, by town, or whatever. I have a few ideas and I'm starting with this one, the Five Canadians and related groups, shown with a copy of their discography in Brown Paper Sack. Contrary to the thread title, incomplete sets are perfectly ok to qualify. Hopefully others will join in the fun.

"Us" is a later ('69) re-recording of 'You Say'. It's almost almost as good and doesn't sound late 60's at all... it has a pretty nifty organ solo (farfisa'ish and not hammond) added
 
Great topic!

I challenge anyone to put on display a complete Skeptics run including all three Thrush 45s plus the picture sleeves!

I don't think anyone will be able to meet that challenge. Here's my best shot. There are only 2 known copies of the Thrush (red) picture sleeve. Billy Miller has the other one. I don't think any others have turned up, so unless Billy has all the other Skeptics rarities, nobody has the complete run.

Here's my 2nd go. The Dirty Wurds and Daughters Of Eve were related. Justin and Debi Pomeroy were brother and sister, son and daughter of the Reverend Ralph Pomeroy.

Geek Alert: The correct company paper sleeve for the Wurds 45 is the blue-gray Chess / Checker / Cadet sleeve.
The one you have in the photo was not unveiled until the fall of 1967.
 
Expanding on the above micro-set, I think this is the full set of Alamo Audio releases, at least as far as I know.

You are missing the first 45, it is on a 'no label name' disc. Perhaps you have it filed away?

Instead of a label name, the declaration JIM RIDGEWAY presents is positioned at the top of the label area.
"The Lagnafs" is positioned directly underneath that.

"Your Money Couldn't Buy Me" / "Yes I Do"

Label number = 45-101

Deadwax has hand etched: Alamo - 45 - 101 and the time per each side 3:39 / 1:55
A Wakefield pressing, hand etched, faintly = SJW 8127

I'd post a photo of this 45 but I am currently in the process of installing my new smartphone and waiting for a # to be ported so I can get it operational.

Not truly complete unless you have all three Five Canadians Domar label 45s (I do!)
