Side b: It's against the rules
DK 1978
Very fine powerpop record by this South African R'n'R group. It was released on a danish record label. How did it come about? I don't know. I haven't a record sleeve to this.
I love this record!

# 567 V2 - Gee Whizz It's You
Side b: Face In The Crowd
UK 1980
The track on the a-side is a cover of a Cliff Richard and the Shadows song while the b-side is a self-penned number. The story goes that the band was very unhappy with this record, bought the most of the records back and destroyed them all. Only a few records survived. Unconfirmed press quantity was 50. The recordings here are a bit unusual sounding, but not really bad. Sadly i haven't a proper cover. I hope you liked it like i do!

Side b: Count on me

# 561 Ready Steady - California girls
Side b: Quality of life
USA 198?
Cool powerpop of this Laguna Beach/CA based band. "California girls" is a cover of a Beach Boys song while the b side is a self penned number. Released on their own "Ready go records". I haven't found more informations. Year of release is unclear. A good one!
# 560 R:Tyme - Stallion
Side b: Kiss me baby... i bombed Tokyo

Nice New Wave with a male (on side a) and a female (on side b) lead singer. It seems that was their lone output on their own label based in Cleveland. A fine one!
