HELP ME FIND THIS ALBUMJust stumbled on a tiny reference to an Australian pop group named The Charade. They had an LP out in 1969 and if you trust the LP cover, the group was made up of 2 guys, 1 girl.
Now the interesting thing about the LP is the track listing. Check it out--
SIDE ONE>
1.BITTER HONEY
2.THE LADY IS WAITING
3.CINDERELLA ROCKFELLA
4.L.A.BREAKDOWN
5.TO PUT UP WITH YOU
6.WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE
7.CLASSICAL GAS
8.PEACE OF MIND
1.TRAIN LEAVES HERE THIS MORNING
2.HAND-ME-DOWN MAN
3.CYCLES
4.WINDY
5.OUT ON THE SIDE
6.LOVE SO FINE
7.SONG TO RAYMONDO
8.TAKIN' LIFE EASY
You got a good number of Paul Williams/Roger Nichols tunes--3 from Williams early band the Holy Mackerel. Where's this LP. I found only 2 references to it online--one Australian, the other in Japanese. Nothing on Ebay, popsike, amazon. How did this slip by?
Question is--I know there must be a good number of copies of it out there (it was released on Parlaphone so it can't be that hard to get my hands on. If anyone knows where i can pick one up, i'd love to share it up here for everyone.
I'll keep my eyes open for it if you promise to do the same.
thanks
I would love to hear this~!!!!!!!!
