From 1968 comes this girl group with a mild garage sound on the HAMLET label. Keeping in the Dayton area for the “Dayton Does Dayton” event mentioned by a follower. Not sure when that happens (or if it already has) but it gives me an excuse to focus my posts on an area.

Not much info on this rare release from ‘67. Label has band members listed so that helps some.

Here’s a country release from 1970 by Phil Beasley and the Journeymen. Not much info here other than what’s included on the label. I have read that Jack Lynch owned the JALYN label.

From Dayton, circa 1959 comes a moovin’ instrumental. What little info I could dig up on this great 2-sider is that the BMC label was owned by Les Bodine and this looks to be the 2nd of four releases by the label. More info needed…but until then, a listen is mandatory!

With only one mid-60’s 45rpm release, Dayton’s The Vacant Lot was host to local talent Roger Sayre. The band morphed from another which was called The X-cellents. The hunt is on for something by them! Some cool keyboards heard on this side.

From 1967 comes a release by Art Harmon. Dig the cool PIXIE label graphics where the chick spells out the label name! The PIXIE label was a house label of the Mega City Recording studio.

From 1964 out of Dayton comes this Bobby Farrell 45rpm. Released on his own label, BFM which I believe stands for Bobby Farrell Music.

Here’s a beat-up copy of a soul number from Dayton. On the GREENSTAR label, not sure of release date. My guess is mid-60’s ??
