Apparently this dude was sent into mental institute at some point after this LP came out. When he was released, he started dating his nurse - and ended up murdering her. Rough.

Even scarier - he was, evidently, the label owner's son.
If you're interested in taking it further back, he was one-half of Jon & Robin, who had one sunshine-pop hit in '67 ("Do It Again Just A Little Bit Slower").
damn. poor nurse. isnt that every guys fantasy too? date your nurse (not the killing part)
i remembered this shit being good. diplo played it for me way back, but hanging with him does affect ones grip on reality. i relistened at good records and recognized the turdiness
Haven't listened yet. I am listening to Dock Boggs Sugar Blues now. Talk about deep soul. I need to listen to that deep soul thread and about a hundred other records I have priced in the last few days. Then I will listen to JHA.
I was disappointed to discover it is neither rare of sought after, much. I don't know much about rock.

I don't know about MY nurse, but I would date A nurse. A nurse that's attended to me has seen me in all kinds of weird states. Knows all my medical shit. Nah.
I'd date a nurse only if she wears her uniform all the time. And by uniform, I mean short white skirt, white stockings and four-inch red heels.
John has that thick mayonnaise caught in the throat voice, like the blood sweat and tears dude. "how can you teach a turtle to fly" is pretty hilarious due to its absurd lyrics and over-earnest-ness. IMO a cheap cousin to more sought after acid archives items in the "what were they thinking?" category.
i didnt know he was half of jon and robin! *rearranges records to reflect 411*
Jon & Robin have a couple decent tracks. "Love Me Baby" is pretty sweet.
And the covers to both J&R records are way better than the JHI cover which is kinda trippy but has some ugly mugs going on. Five Americans "Progressions" is a good LP on that label.
Western Union is, to me, the Five Americans' worst elpee due to the weak cover versions. But you can't go wrong with Progressions or (especially) the HBR elpee. Never heard the two-record set on Abnak.

I suppose there's some funky rock in the offing, but nothing to write home about.
John Howard can eed a deeck.
