Dennis Diken:

welcome back Mikey! would love to learn about personnel on non-Shondell sessions, especially the drummers (perhaps Buddy Saltzman, Bobby Gregg?). I played on a Tommy record date a few years back, it was a thrill and he was electrifying in the studio!

That confirmed my long held opinion that "Think We're Alone Now" could have been broken up into at least three sure shot hits. It's the first record i remember buying on my own.

Paul Dee:

I just got the second Soft Machine record and Little Milton's If Walls Could talk. Oh and the Cossimo Matassa VOL2 box and that Elvis at Stax records. As usual my mind went blank right when i entered the store. Thats why i love a good new arrivals bin.
