PAUL REVERE & THE RAIDERS – Something Happening – (Columbia) – 1968

SAM THE SHAM AND THE PHARAOHS – Lil Red Riding Hood – (MGM) -1966
I have commented on another “Sam the Sham” album in a very early post on this blog, when this blog was just an email list actually. Since then I’ve decided to flesh these things out a bit, well at least … Continue reading
