Oops!

 Well, I know 2020 wasn't exactly the most hopping of years here, but I did have at least 1 post per month...except for December. How did that happen? :p 

Anyway, let's start off 2021 with this gem.

Honestly, I had wanted to find something a little more wacky for this post, but this really is a gem to me, as I'm pretty sure this is just the record version of the cassette we'd listen to on family trips. It was back before we had a VCR, so listening to movies was a good option. Used to record the Star Wars movies on a tape recorder and listen to them afterwards as well.

Yep, it's basically a condensed recap of the movie. Makes me wonder if I still have the old cassette somewhere. If I ever find it, I'll add a picture.

Jane Fonda's biggest claim to fame?

 Jane Fonda is known for many things; acting, charity work, having been married to Ted Turner, etc...but to many, this is her most famous work.

Seriously, this was mega-huge!

I see one of the songs is "Megatron Man" by Patrick Cowley. Has nothing to do with Transformers. ;) It's an electronic dance number from 1981. Give it a spin...


This album also has a gatefold. Not too creative, though, compared with the back cover image.

Wife-shopping

 

Not too up on my Italian movies, really, but this is a fun cover. And Rhonda Fleming is great!

Monday Night Fussball

No idea who any of them are, but I appreciate that they printed their names under their signatures anyway. It can be so hard to tell who wrote what sometimes.

Obviously an import. Lots of older German and Polish people living around here and I see stuff like this all the time.

Anyway, this is my first post using the new version of Blogger and...yeah, not liking it. Especially annoying for a picture-heavy blog, because the quality of the picture has most definitely dropped from the original, much like at Facebook, which also compresses or something. Plus, the options that used to pop up after posting a picture have changed too. You used to be able to select 'original size' before, but now, it's just 'increase' or 'decrease.' Seems like it doesn't get it right no matter what you do. :/

Oh, and the new label system is super annoying and slow too.

P.S. I reverted back to the "Legacy" version and re-upped the pictures, which look the way they're supposed to now.

The Lyttletones

Nice looking guitars there. Gretsch Chet Atkins Country Gentlem[e]n, perhaps?

Bigtime hype! This better be the best music anyone has ever heard, Mr. Fisher! ;)

That's around 1.5 hours from where I grew up. Passed through many times on the way to Saint John.
