SKOGIE - There's A String Attached To Almost Everything We Do LP 74


 One of two ideas I got from old record store clerks that I follow on meta and a third this week I was reminded of by Dale T. Nelson as he always posts on the death date which was November 9th for Terry Katzman from Garage D'Or record store I frequented in the college days--here is a link:R.I.P. (https://www.discogs.com/artist/265531-Terry-Katzman   On to this wild electronic band from Minneapolis, MN--where I am from and going for a family reunion this year over Thanksgiving and will be aways for a couple two three weeks using up vacation time before year end.  Another different clerk friend posted about the Pool-Puh band below same week and similar electronic sound like FMR's post this week also below.  This is a real innovative electronic keyboard sounds into a rocking album!!!  I put in the A-side track for the 1973 but couldn't find the flip side song if anyone has this?

 This request for this Oakland, CA mod R&B group active since 1990 is straight from the man upstairs for this blog:  Luis Miguel Sousa de Jesus.  And it also is in theme for my trip over Thanksgiving to see my own loved ones.  Thanks for thinking of me old pal and enjoy!

VA - SUMMER JAM II LP & III LP 81


REPOST and ADD ON:  E.W. had mentioned the III compilation which has been posted and was glad to see someone digging it because they requested the II which really takes me back to what we were listening to back then.  Great fun covers on the second one that really got me nostalgic.  Bands are:  Free Spirits, Black Gold, Star Stuff, Sweet Breeze, Free Spirit, The Sound Effects and The Ropers.  Now, anyone know what the volume 1 is or what it looks like?  Thanks.

DYAN DIAMOND - In The Dark LP 78


REPOST Request:  What I wrote last time:  This is a buried punkish classic!  I like the 'Western Ave" kind of tune since I used to live by there and its "Back on the Strip' if you will doing the "Mystery Dance" with the 'Animal Girl' whose 'Nervous' (great song BTW!!!) about being in "Your Neighborhood' "In The Dark' so we are "Gonna Rock Ourselves To Death' with this 'Hot' to trot singer--"Baby What You Want Me To Do' are you 'Someone Like Me' or a 'Teenage Radio Star' instead.  Those are all the songs anyways.  Enjoy
