Dick Glasser

Here are more "hits of the day" by one Dick Glasser.

DIG IT

Terry Jacks

Would anyone have his two later albums, "Just Like That" and "Pulse"? If so, please put a link in the comments.

Dick Campbell

Apparently, where it was at for Dick Campbell was to sound exactly like '66-era Bob Dylan.

John Braden

Another obscure treasure from my favorite boutique label, A&M.

DIG IT

Norma Tanega

Kinda folk, kinda gospel, kinda cool ... ya dig?

DIG IT

Teddy Neeley

He's a man, he's just a man. At least he was before he was Jesus.

DIG IT

The Baja Marimba Band

A later-period Baja joint. A link for their album "Naturally" can be found in the comments, thanks to blog friend Rock Archeologia.

DIG IT

Zapped!

If Scott Baio is involved, you know it must be great. That goes double for former teen heartthrob and current cruise director Willie Aames.

DIG IT

Oak Island Treasury Department

I'm really digging this band's second album, which can be found here. If you have their first record (the cover is above), please put a link in the comments.

Haircuts and the Impossibles

Some classic exploito - it's all there in the band's name. Check the comments for a link their other record, "Here's Where It's At."

DIG IT

Jesus Christ Superstar

Some music to get your Good Friday going.

DIG IT

John Hurley

Went record shopping at In Your Ear yesterday and found a couple of records on my wants list. Here's one, the final album by John Hurley on Bell. Enjoy.

John Hurley

Here are John Hurley's first two albums, "Sings About People" and "Delivers One More Hallelujah."

DIG IT

Better

Is this the way to live a life
Never think about the meaning
Then one day you wake up
And the whole world is careening
Well I'm no philosopher
Not Jean Paul Sartre
But it doesn't take a genius to know
You gotta have heart, miles of heart
DIG IT

The Wilders

Gettin' horny with Burt.

DIG IT

Salt Water Taffy

Here's something sweet and savory for ya.

DIG IT

Love Minus One

This record is a real hodgepodge of styles, from lounge to jazz to pysch. But it's actually pretty great for a virtually unknown movie soundtrack, which you can read about over at Waxidemy (be sure to check out the comments).

DIG IT

Sounds of the Woodstock Age

This glorious slab of ridiculous exploito can be found over on Rock Archeologia. Many thanks, bud!

DIG IT

Barry Mann

It's likely that when Carole King had her tremendous success with "Tapestry" that record company execs figured they could make money off the other Brill Building songwriters. Neil Sedaka fared quite well. Not so much for the likes of Ellie Greenwich, Gerry Goffin and Barry Mann, all of whom made worthy if idiosyncratic records, of which "Lay It All Out" is one.

DIG IT

Cass Elliott

At this point in her career, Cass was done with the bubblegum music that Dunhill had apparently foisted on her and she no longer wanted to be called "Mama." So she went into the studio with songs from more serious-minded writers like Judee Sill and Randy Newman to produce what is likely her best record. Alas, after this she decamped to Vegas, to Carson, and to the middle of the road before her untimely death.

DIG IT

U.S. Navy Port Authority

Just wanted to turn up the heat in here.

DIG IT

Trade Martin

Answers the musical question, who is Trade Martin?
