Part of the Fenton collection I call Bluenote logo Fentons (can't think of a better name...)
I always classed these Fenton 45s as "Staff Fentons" since the logo is placed upon a musical staff.

In memory of our dear departed Lama a bit of Roky ephemera. Though the music was, for the first dozen years or so, absolutely anything but. Ephemeral, that is...

Correction to the B- side post. The way things have been going lately I'm not at all surprised I didn't effect the brain-twizzling task of managing to flip a couple of 45's over. Sheeeshh...

Almost complete US run. I suddenly realized I miss the one with the label text mentioning it's from the album "Turn on…" Any other US omissions anyone knows about?

The next set, yes, I desperately miss/need Ellen & The Shandels/Gypsy. But the rest was one of many pet projects.

The Power. Of "Children ask" fame. Though I still need the Showplace copy which plays with the line "Children ask if God is dead". Hit me with your multiple offerings of this!
Smashing head shots + handwritten bios. If any serious re-issue label ever contemplates including them in a various artists comp, dial me up! I will happily share.

Growing up in the NYC area I was fortunate to become acquainted with the Left Banke early on. As did millions worldwide, of course, though how many followed the band post their two hits is likely a question readly answered by reviewing the ease with which certain of the bands later releases can be found. Especially with the two elusive US picture sleeves. My interest in the group was rekindled with the arrival of Alan Betrocks' seminal Rock Marketplace magazine in spring 1973. The in depth article on the band contained within was the first serious bit of historically focused 60's centric rock writing I ever encountered. Which makes sense, as TRM was , along with Greg Shaw's & David Harris's Mojo Navigator & Greg's Who Put The Bomp, essentially the first magazines of their kind, with the notable exception of Alans prior 'zine JAMZ.
The arrival of TRM #1 in my sweaty teenage mitts sealed the deal. Whereas Rock, Hullaballoo, Circus, Creem Melody Maker, NME et. al. were all ravenously devoured on those rare blessed days when a copy could be procured, begged or borrowed, these worthy mags were generally contemporary in the nature of their reportage. Yes, while Lenny Kaye, Vince Aletti & innumerable others would pen terrific articles on yonder days of olde, none of these papers / magazines had the in depth discographies & historical minutia that filled the pages of TRM. Promo only pic sleeves? Non - LP 45's & B- sides? Mono mixes? All this & infinitely more was suddenly revealed. I'd collected records previously, mostly LP's, but this was a whole new ballgame. I became a lifer.
So, via an admittedly somewhat roundabout transit, events lead / led ? { Urgent DJB grammatical clarification notification requested & warranted) to this post. With undeniably killer circa 1965 - 66 tracks such as She May Call You Up Tonight, I've Got Something on My Mind and I'm A Nothing to the band members credit , the Left Banke delivered goods of the highest order. And if any further proof of the bands bona-fides are required by dubious doubters simply check out the attitude laden pic on page one of the below reproduced article. (they were from the Bronx, after all...) Two 45's are missing from the label pic, an unfortunate reality that I intend to redress in due course. Dropped the Magic Plants in to partially atone for this. Till then, I'll sign off with the TRM piece on the band, secure in the knowledge that this may prove to be of interest to certain observers...
eargasm!

Looks pretty impressive to these eyes!Obviously honorable members such as Eargasm!, Nightrocker, MTM or BossHoss would score much better, but this is as far as I got with New England Teen Scene Vol. 1 & 2. May 2016 enlarge that pic by a row (or two):

A few more bits out of Left field.
Billboard advert. Much nicer than the rather dull B&W pic sleeve.
UK press of first LP. True mono --->
---> unlike the US issue. Label reads Mono, matrix reveals stereo. I've NEVER encountered a US LP with proper mono matrix. Not a gigantic problem, as 7 of the LP's 11 tracks were issued on 45 with PUNCHY mixes.
Never knew that Gary Walker guested with the band.
Saved the best for last. {Never knew that Phil May, Jr, hung w/ these reprobates?} This would have made for a lousy EP sleeve, eh??
