i have the westwood one disc, and it has (as far as i'm aware) otherwise
unavailable (on CD) true-stereo versions of "honky tonk woman," "get off
my cloud," and "mother's little helper," but no "19th."
i think there might be stray stones tunes on some other westwood CDs. i
don't think dick bartley uses them for his material, however. i think he
uses a similar service, the name of which escapes me. (they did a
true-stereo version of "california girls," syching up the stereo
instrumental and acapella vocals versions, which i've heard on his show a
few times.)

I've been talking with a friend about mono mixes lately, and with all the
posts about the stereo 19th Nervous Breakdown, I thought it might be
interesting to mention rare mono mixes that particularly differ from
their stereo counterparts. I remember a great find was a UK pressing of
the first Traffic album in mono. A completely different animal. One album
that I have never heard in mono is Axis: Bold As Love. I imagine that is
pretty unique, too.

Somebody (I don't remember who) made a reference to Ronnie's
autobiography a couple of issues ago. That prompted me to pull out the
book and casually skim it, re-reading some favorite interesting sections.
Anyway, I noticed something in the discography that I'd never paid
attention to before -- the details of Ronnie's (last?) recording sessions
from 1989. According to the book, she recorded four Marshall Crenshaw
songs for Alan Betrock. I nearly flipped! I love the Ronettes, and
Crenshaw is one of my absolute favorites! And two of the songs --
"Communication" and "For His Love" -- are otherwise unreleased!
Do these recordings exist? Does anybody have copies? Does anybody know
ANYTHING about them?!
Surf's up!

Hi everyone,
I remember there were a few posts regarding the UK group The Flower Pot
Men, who are a big favorite of mine. Well there's been a recent
compilation on Sequel Records, by a group that fans of The Flower Pot Men
Will Love. It's called "You've Got To Be Loved" by The Montanas, and
it's full of orchestrated pop from the late 60s, with wonderful melodies
and hooks. The funny thing is that while the band had only one charted
record, the title song, it actually charted in the U.S. and not their
native U.K.
The comp has 26 tracks, many of which were previously unreleased,
recently discovered songs, and you can get it from Disc Collector Records
in Colorado,
among other places.

Spectropop Rules!!!!!
Take Care,
David
