Don't have the moder-looking ones.
I'll ride. Records like those keep me from getting skunked when I hit up the local Goodwill.
The two on Carnival (reissued on Collectables) are pretty good as well.
Actually, those two albums shown here are a little early to be modern - '73 and '74, to be exact. And the one from '74 (beige cover with the Manhattan city skyline) has an entire side of older Deluxe recordings.
And I forget his name, but the Manhattans had the coolest rapping bassman this side of the Ink Spots.
RESPECT THE GOODNESS
$5 well spont for both of those early-mid 70's joints.
Art Laboe heads know whats up with the sweetness that is "Theres No Me Without You"
I'll show you some goodness to respect...their 1980 greatest hits album on Columbia, which is one of the most consistently good best-ofs ever. If "Shining Star" or "We Never Danced To A Love Song"*** doesn't convince you, your soul's got a hole in it.
