They have a similar sound. I was listening to the instrumental flip side of the record that was featured on the blog the other day. It's dominated by the harmonica thru much of the song. When I get the time I will post it. johnnie ohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17228723468858038158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4827956203367344057.post-59264387313924812602014-05-19T17:16:37.706-07:002014-05-19T17:16:37.706-07:00Are you aware that The Destinations record was pre...Are you aware that The Destinations record was pressed by Kay Bank? On their other record, it is printed on the label that it was recorded at Arthur Smith Studios in North Carolina. I'd guess this one was also recorded there. Arthur Smith pressed many of his recordings with Kay Bank. I'm adding this one to the KB discography.<br /><br />thanksDerikhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01076941324847748381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4827956203367344057.post-3648901265659451772013-11-30T07:55:55.469-08:002013-11-30T07:55:55.469-08:00Thank you for pointing out the typo mistake.

It has been a long since I heard that one. It brings back a lot good memories. Glad you liked the Destinations 45. If you happen to come across any information about the group that would be great to know. Thanks for your comments.<br />johnnie ohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17228723468858038158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4827956203367344057.post-69685895007256579672013-11-14T09:01:19.864-08:002013-11-14T09:01:19.864-08:00He Johnny,

I also agree on Linda Wilson, fab tune, I had it collected on of one my Girls with a Beat-selections.

I was thinking the song "Road Runners" was another version of the rock song "Road Runner" that the Gants had a hit with. To my surprise it was totally different. I don't know the date of the 45, it sounds like it might came out in the mid 1960's. The vocals sounds like it was an older gentleman. I'm thinking that it is probably not the same Cliff Clay who made "Sugar Baby". The Rocky-52.net website shows that Al and the Echoes released two 45's. One in 1966 and another in 1967, both on the Echo label. After listen to some of the Al Henderson sound bites that you mentioned it possible but again I thinking it was a different artist as well. I'm am glad you enjoyed the songs. I also appreciate you taking the time write me your thoughts about the 45's.johnnie ohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17228723468858038158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4827956203367344057.post-91164583450990103822013-11-13T03:04:41.596-08:002013-11-13T03:04:41.596-08:00a Cliff Clay & The Rainbow Rhythmaires made a ...a Cliff Clay & The Rainbow Rhythmaires made a nice Hillbilly Bopper on Ruby (OH) 45 - 180 (1956) called Sugar Baby same artist maybe?
