I rescue & review records out of bargin bins across the country to shine some modern day light on them.

Various Artists - Unforgettable Oldies (1967)
Unart was a budget sublabel of United Artists Records in the 60's. I originally picked up this title because I'm a fan of Toledo, Ohio's Johnny & The Hurricanes, who have three fantastic tracks on here, Red River Rock, Sheba & Reveille Rock. It also hold three of Del Shannon's hits, including Runaway & Hats Off To Larry. Johnny Gibson makes a welcome appearance with Midnight too. That leaves very little room to fit in the other teenie boppers, The Royaltones, The Volumes, & The Dream Girls. It's a nice balance of rockin' instrumentals with a side of early pop.
