From 1961 comes a slow side out of the capitol city. Not much info here, but I image “Bob” is Bob Hill credited for writing the tune.

I don’t have much info on this band, I’m guessing an early to mid ’60s release since it has a Beatles sound.

Here’s a mystery 45. I’m guessing this one was released some time in the mid to late ’60s. This isn’t the same band who had the hit “Kind of a Drag”. Anyone with info??

Not much info, but worth a listen.

From YouTube…here’s Archie doing some rockabilly flavored country:

The KARL label was from Ohio and research leads me to believe this one was released sometime in 1958. If you listen close, there seems to be some Earl Scruggs licks goin’ on.

Sounds like classic ’70′s material. Recorded at the famous Peppermint Studios on the city’s south side.

From 1957 comes a mild rockabilly release out of the small town of Yellow Springs. This one has been included on several recent compilation LPs/cds.

 Here’s the local hit side from this legendary band outta Y-town. I’ve just found out that Pete Pompura, the bassist for the band, recently passed away. Check out the band’s bio page over at Buckeye Beat (link in sidebar) for lots of info & cool pics. R.I.P. Pete.

Not much info on this release from 1966. Seems like the band tried to cash in on the current dance craze of the day!

 I’ve got very little information on this groovin instrumental. My research dug up that the label was out of Canton and only released a hand-full of 45s. This gem appeared in 1958.
