45 Detritus
Some detritus found among 45s left over mostly from college radio in the 70s:
Dingetje - Ik Ga Weg Leen (3:00)
Rob de Nijs - Bier is Bitter (3:36)
Humpback Whale - Also Sprach Zarathustra [kazoo] (1:05)
Before "mixups" really got rolling, here was a doozy from some tunes typically much older than the genre:
Knack and Beatles - My Sharona/Love Me Do (2:33)
An unusual pair of songs for a medley:
New Christy Minstrels - Hey Jude - Atlantis (3:30)
When novelty songs about hippies were funny:
Rocki Lane and the Gross Group - Happy Hairy Hippy Harry Claus (2:31)
A bouncy lighthearted number about terrorism:
Village Sound - Hey Jack (Don't Hijack My Plane) (2:39)
To finish, some lovely Finnish covers:
Virve "Vicky" Rosti - I Will Survive (3:43)
Pentti Oskari Kankaan and Seinahullua Veljesta - Do Ya Think I'm Sexy (4:16)
