The frustrating thing, Sandy, is that when my LP changer broke down, I never replaced it. I lost most of my vinyls when I came to Australia anyway.By the way, I heard this in the 60s on the radio. It must have made an impression on me. I don't recall if it sounded like a repress of a 78 record. The singer sounded black as I recall.
Did Thorpe and/or Rasmussen make their LPs in the mid-late 60s?
Rick brings up the other possibility that it could have been in an Anthology.
Independently of all that, I will certainly look into Jerry Rasmussen!
