I lost the actual disc of this years ago, and if truth be told the only thing I recall about it is that it featured a very nice, Ventures-styled cover of "Theme From 'A Summer Place.'"
That being the case, a coveted PowerPop No-Prize will be awarded the first reader who can identify the artiste(s) behind the snarky nom du disque (hey -- no Googling!).
And a coveted PowerPop No-Prize and a week in Philadelphia to any reader who's got mp3s handy of any of the songs from the damn thing.

Sorry, Steve. I knew I had no chance on this one, so I went ahead and googled it. Looks like there are copies to be had at ebay & mp3s to be listened to at various places, including a tumblr account called "power-pop."
I am unfamiliar with "tumblr account."

Great name and cover, although I am bereft of clues as to those behind the enterprise.

Andy Paley. Of the Sidewinders, who I posted about a while back, and later of all sorts of good stuff, including working with Brian Wilson. And the Paley Brothers, of course.

Scroll down to hear Beatles Costello do Soldier of Love.
Interesting cover photo. Taken, apparently, during the Great Underwear Shortage.
JL -- Thanks!!!
