45s and Other Revolutions: A-Sides beginning with the letter J, and one that begins with the letter K.
DEVO [00:48] a side: "Jerkin' Back 'n' Forth (mono)" b side: "Jerkin' Back 'n' Forth (mono)" Warner Bros. Records WBS50010 1981 Both sides are mono! The Archies [06:52] a side: "Jingle Jangle" b side: "Justine" Kirshner Records 63-5002 1969 Hooo boy, if only this were a promo single I'd totally play "Jingle Jangle" twice. At least. Outer Limits Recordings [12:43] a side: "Julie" b side: "Plastik Child" Olde English Spelling Bee OESB-709 2010 Awesome weirdo pop. Shawne Jackson [21:01] a side: "Just as Bad as You (stereo)" b side: "Just as Bad as You (mono)" Playboy Records P 50053 1974 Funky stuff from North of the border. The Main Ingredient [27:10] a side: "Just Don't Want to Be Lonely" b side: "Goodbye My Love" RCA Victor APB0-0205 1974 Ahhh so smooooth. Don't know why it only reached number 60 on the Hot 100. Sonny and Cher [35:39] a side: "Just You" b side: "Sing C'est la Vie" ATCO Records 45-6345 1965 Their first single on ATCO, and evidently one of Cher's favorites. The Cars [43:29] a side: "Just What I Needed" b side: "Tonight She Comes" Elektra Records 7-69589 1985 Huh, well I'll be damned... "Tonight She Comes" is actually the a-side since this was released for their Greatest Hits album. Oh well. Ah yes, it's all coming back to me now. The Pretenders [51:05] a side: "Kid (stereo)" b side: "Kid (mono)" Sire Records SRE49533 1979 Definitely my favorite Pretenders single. Those James Honeyman-Scott riffs are where it's at. Happy to play that one twice. Music behind the DJ: "Gomez" by Vic Mizzy.
