Paleophone [mm:ss] a side: "Like Stars" b side: "All I Ever" Cock of the Walk COTW01 2012 Some local tunes, including a b-side that references a band that I know well. Sebadoh [mm:ss] a side: "Limelight" b side: "Dialogue" Joyful Noise Records JNR171 2015 Didn't we all hate high school? A little something for adolescents of all ages out there in listener land. The Monkees [mm:ss] a side: "A Little Bit Me, A Little Bit You" b side: "The Girl I Knew Somewhere" Colgems 66-1004 1967 Yup. Super catchy Neil Diamond tune on the a-side, and an even catchier b-side written by Michael Nesmith. If you poke around enough you can find a version of "Girl I Knew Somewhere" with Michael singing instead of Mickey which I really really like. For those of you who are interested in that sort of thing, check out Michael Nesmith's recent autobiography "Infinite Tuesday" (https://amzn.to/2GFo0p8). The Music Explosion [mm:ss] a side: "Little Bit O'Soul" b side: "I See the Light" Laurie Records LR 3380 1967 Reached the #2 slot on the Hot 100 but was unable to dislodge The Association's "Windy" from #1. Mansfield Ohio's own. Palace Music [mm:ss] a side: "Little Blue Eyes" b side: "The Spider's Dude Is Often There" Drag City Records DC91 1996 A fine little single, perhaps my favorite of the Palace incarnations. Syndicate of Sound [mm:ss] a side: "Little Girl" b side: "You" Bell Records 640 1966 San Jose's own Syndicate of Sound bringing us a well played Nuggets classic (https://youtu.be/mtVq3wCCjxk), and a very groovy b-side. I'll be honest and say that I think the first time I heard this tune was via the Divinyls 1988 rendition with the noun change. Pete Townshend [mm:ss] a side: "A Little Is Enough (stereo)" b side: "A Little Is Enough (mono)" ATCO Records 7312 1980 Indeed, the New Wave-esque pop single from his 1980 album Empty Glass. Not only does this promo single have a stereo and a mono side, but the stereo side label is blue and the mono side is white. Fleetwood Mac [mm:ss] a side: "Little Lies" b side: "Little Lies" Warner Bros. Records 7-28291 1987 A fine little Christine McVie number from their 1987 Tango in the Night album. Indicative of the time, there is actually a Jelly Bean Benitez remix of this on the 12" release of this same single. Music behind the DJ: "Baby Elephant Walk" by Les Brown and His Orchestra.
