It should be noted that whenever I post these, I'm basically only using the covers and the track list. All tracks are usually my own restorations, transfers or rips.

I am currently working on a set of their RCA records and am only missing one side. If ANYONE has a copy of the RCA side " My Life With You" please contact me at glenne3@yahoo.com !
