I don't know if Jon's actually *managing* Question Mark or not, but he is bringing him in to the studio that he and ex-Vipers' guitarist/organist Dave Mann run in Manhattan (Krispy Kreme). It's being done on spec, tho'... there's no label waiting for the record. Jon's just hoping to generate some interest. The recording is actually why they're doing the shows... Jon set them up to help defray the group's cost in making the trip. I think ? already has a manager, but Jon just wants things to help make things happen.

I'm looking for both the large and half-size LP crates as well as 7" crates.>> Here is a topic that about a year ago I wrote about in some detail on this very mailing list but I'll try and remember the facts. Basically I went to my local record collectors shop in Hackensack, NJ which is where I usually purchase all of my record supplies. This pop shop caters mostly to the Doo Wop and oldies audiance and they have a rather large selection of singles and supplies but I stray from the topic. The store sold singles white singles boxes with lids...the ones that were about 18"x7.5"x7.5" and they cost around $5.00 each. Because I was planning on moving around 4000 singles I realized that I was going to go broke really quickly. On the suggestion of a friend of mine I stopped by one of the many comic book shops that litter the land to check out what kind of things that they sold and sure enough I walk out with product. The comic book shop sold the same style white box with lid but it measured 36"x7.5"x10" and the boxes sold for only $3.00 each! so they do take up a little more room in height but for my money it is well worth the space. As for shipping boxes for albums I always use the Ryder book boxes that fit albums just fine. - -------------- On the basic topic of record storage Dale/hifitoastr wrote: i finally settled on some small bookshelves from target. i've gotten several people to convert from crates (or my old cinder block and plywoodsystem) to bookshelves. the best ones i've found (i looked everywhere) are 3 shelves with each shelf is about 13" high, 11" deep, and about 3 feet wide. the 11" deep make them perfect to pull records out.>>> Here is a topic that anyone with a large collection has to deal with on a daily basis how to store records in the house or worse yet in a one bedroom apartment with a new wife...ooops that's just my life. We've got around 13,000 records (evenly split between 7" singles, LP's and CDs) lining the walls of our one bedroom apartment in Hoboken and it is a little tight. I've been thinking changing from the white Home Depot shelving units that four usable shelves and then one extra little shelf at the top that holds video tapes. One of hte real problems with this unit is that there is loads of extra room on above the unit that could probably hold at least one or two more "shelves" worth of records.

I still have some crates waiting for the real estate to hold them, but if I ever do move to a house, I should probably just make some sturdier custom shelves. Check out the pictures in the INCREDIBLY STRANGE MUSIC books. Once you start reaching the multi-thousand point in LPs, this is probably as cost-efficient a solution as anything else. I did once make replicas of the little 45 crates that Peaches and other stores used to sell. It was a lot of work and mess for someone that doesn't have a full time workshop in their home. While nobody seems interested in supplying storage for the dead LP format, there are a couple of manufacturers making storage units for laserdiscs, which are the exact same size as LPs. Unfortunately, these units are all extremely overpriced, catering to the elitist laserdisc community (who usually don;t have that many discs anyway). As for plastic milk crates -- it's even hard to get these nowadays. If you go to record shows, you'll see that the dealers (except for the ones using cardboard boxes) all have store-bought plastic crates that are deeper than the albums, which is essential for safe stacking and transport. But if you try to buy them now, all you'll probably see for dsale are ones that leave an inch of the album covers exposed. - - Jay Schwartz ==================================================================== To unsubscribe from Bomp, send an e-mail to majordomo@bolis.com with "unsubscribe bomp" in the message body.

It's a 45 on Okeh -- I'm guessing late 50's to early 60's. The label is purple with sort of gold lettering, and the music is definitely in the wild & wacky zone. Number appearing on both sides is 4-6947. The ensemble is called The Vince Fiorino Trio. A-side (I guess) info: (ZSP 13031) "Red Canary (Indian Song)" Vocal by Millie Coury and Lon Saxon composer credit: Fiorini Instrumentation is wild tuba, sprightly electric organ and kling klang percussion. Male/female duet vocals over top, with lyrics encouraging a red canary to keep singing as an aid to their wooing. Chorus lyrics: "Red canary sing a song -- Red canary chirp along." But given the era (cold war, reds in the bed), I almost wonder if it's a subliminal communist propaganda song -- especially when the line: "In the future we'll be free." pops in totally out of nowhere. Huh?!? B-side info: (ZSP 13034) "Tuba Square Dance" Vocal by Arki, The Arkansas Woodchopper composer credit: Fiorino -- then kind of scratched up, maybe Christian This is a wacked-out square dance kind of thing. It adds a drumkit, even more percussion, banjo and maybe a little electric guitar to the mix -- plus duck calls at the end. The tuba is still trilling wildly up and down the scales -- what lungs! It sort of reminds me of Macy Skipper's "Goofin' Off" except without the sophisticated repartee. Sounds like two men and one woman on vocals this time. Sampling the lyrics (mostly spoken, square dance style): "Arkansas, you big fat cat -- Hit that high note in yer hat." the woman: "I wish I was with Arkansas, a settin' on a rail a sweet potato in my hand and a 'possum by the tail. Arkansas! He bit me!" "Hey Sam, fetch a burlap sack to plug up that dad-blamed tuba!" Anyone know anything about these folks?

It is one of my fave LPs of all time. On a personal note, I went with Kim Kane (Slickee Boys) to see the Strawbs in DC at the 930 Club about 10 years ago. When we went into the dressing room and asked about getting our Monks records autographed, they freaked out (Hudson & Ford, that is). We asked what happened to their lead singer - he was doing sound that very night for the Strawbs! He was really happy to see that we had those records. As soon as he entered the dressing room, Ford held up the 1st LP and the singer said :"It's Top Of The Pops!" just as he did on the LP (on the song "Johnny Be Rotten").

Maybe different parts of the country use different sizes of gallon containers(ha, yeah right) but it still might be worth someone's time to look into it as the milk crates I have access to are only about 1/2" too small. ==================================================================== To unsubscribe from Bomp, send an e-mail to majordomo@bolis.com with "unsubscribe bomp" in the message body.

The people who I do my shipping with - Ansett Ridgeway from Australia - - have a 'standard' sized carton intended for books that is *perfect* for lp's. (Actually, they have a 'standard' carton that is about 0.3 cubic meters - - their book carton is about half of that) Internally, it measures about 12 1/2 inches wide and 14 inches high and is about 20 inches long - so it holds about 100 lp's. I've kept my collection on the move in these things for quite a while. Now the people at Ansett Ridgeways tell me that this carton is based on an industry standard so nearly all *international* shippers should have cartons about the same size. They cost about $3 each, try calling your local supplier. Reccommended.

Are you using the square ones or the rectangular ones. The square ones are too small. The rectangular ones, tho', fit in at least one direction... I thought they fit in both, tho'...

I think #6 is in the same league as "Heavy Psych," though the sound quality isn't as good. The tracks by Mechanical Switch, Yesterday's Obsession, the Bourbons and the Free are all must-haves, and little of the rest will disappoint. You'll recognize "Silence in the Morning" by Glass Sun from "Heavy Psych," and Preston's "This World Is Closing In On Me" from "Lyte Psych." Volume 7 is almost all garage, and pretty obscure at that. The only "stars" from the Michigan scene that show up are SRC (as The Old Exciting Scot Richard Case) and The Pack (after Terry Knight left the fold). If it's psych you're after, you'd probably like #8 better. The first half is made up of very well-known punk/psych (Caretakers of Deception's "Cuttin' Grass," Faine Jade's "It Ain't True," etc), while the second half contains cuts from obscure psych albums by bands like St. Steven, the Paisleys, Hunger, and so on.

That is Randy Bachman of the first generation Guess Who and Bachman-Turner Overdrive (BTO). He also has a website for his "Guitarchives" label that is dedicated to jazz guitar legend Lenny Breau. On a sad note, Kurt Winter ("American Woman" etc.), who replaced Randy in the Guess Who died in Winnipeg just before Christmas. Burton Cummings and other former bandmates were at the funeral. If anyone is interested I could post some of the details from the newspaper reports.
