Aquarius/Let The Sunshine In - The Ed Sullivan Singers
Columbia Special Products CA-10465
What usually arrives in charity/thrift store shops in pristine shape, is over priced by staff as they scrawl, on the cover, the price with a chunky black marker? What is thrown into the record bin to have the box brutalized by costumer handling? Boxed music sets like this. Eventually, I think most must be thrown out. No one wants them. Neither do I. Or do I? Driven to look at the track list just to make sure that there that I'm not missing out on any interesting light pop covers I find that one of the four records in the set is dedicated to Beatles covers. And there are other gems to be found on this pop/mood collection including obscurities like Aquarius/Let The Sunshine In by The Ed Sullivan Singers.
Overall, this set is a nice collection of period Columbia "mood/pop" samples. Respect the box set.
