DUSK Suburbia USA 45 rpm (My Record Collection) groamy.blogspot.com

One of my all time favorite records. Inherited this one from Mom and it holds some of my earliest record label defacings. I scrawled my (probably 3 or 4 year old) name, "CHAD" over the top of the name "Kenny Spitzer". Fairly certain Mom pinched this one from a friend's collection. Sorry Kenny! Also, I had started at this time, writing a number 1 on my favorite side and a 2 on the lesser favorite. This would later develop into a code with stars and x's. Some of my favorite guitar work on here. Simple, memorable and fun.

The flipside is a pop gem with a girl group bent called "Treat Me Like a Good Piece of Candy". Classic.

Billy Joe Royal Cherry Hill Park 1969 (My Record Collection) groamy.blogspot.com

Another random 45 from my collection. I've had this in my stack since I was probably 5 or 6 years old. I'm fairly certain it belonged to an ex-step-aunt as it has some lovebird graffiti on the sticker that leads me in that direction.

Never liked the B-side.

C.O.H. Sticker

Help me out here people! This is a sticker for my first (real) band C.O.H. (yes, it stands for Carcass On the Highway). Anyhoo, this is artwork by me, printed at Kinko's on cheap photocopier sticker paper. We printed and hand cut hundreds of these things. We sold some but most went out as freebies. No clue what year this is. I'm guessing it's 1992 to 97-ish. If anybody knows, please do tell!

The text above the head says "A band only a mutha could love".

First Post! A Random grab from an ancient stack of wax

++NOTE++
The fourambition.com sticker is a shout out for my good pal Shannon who keeps getting his new sleeve tattoo pushed farther and farther back. I swear to you, Shannon, we will start that sleeve soon!!

----------------------------------

I'll be pulling out all kinds of miscellanea from my collection. This one is a 45 RPM record handed down to me by my mother. I've been listening to this record my whole life (37 years this year!) as you can probably tell by the cracks and pops in the sound. This one was already beat up when I got it. The record's label has Mom's name written on it in ballpoint pen as well as a couple stars indicating that the Keem O Sabe side was the preferred track. The spirals in ink pen are some of my earliest graffiti. I used to love holding an ink pen against a record's label while it was spinning...


The interweb says this thing came out in '69 and the band was a "fake" bubblegum band featuring a very young Daryl Hall on keys.
