Yes, I know this list is all over the map – but…I wish I knew more about guys like Leon Russell and Harold Battiste, the stuff they worked on in L.A. before becoming famous.

I’ve been collecting records for over 40 years, but I can still find stuff that I didn’t even know about, when looking through 7” 45rpm singles!

EIGHT SECONDS – KISS YOU (WHEN IT'S DANGEROUS), POLYDOR US 7” W/PS produced by Rupert Hine

ETERNITY'S CHILDREN – MRS. BLUEBIRD, TOWER US 7”
