Verdicts (O'Dell)

The Verdicts were believed to be from the Baltimore, Maryland area. If you like the moody sound of the 1960's you will enjoy both sides of this record. The group's "Turtle Neck Sweaters" on side 2 is probably the most known of the two songs on the 45.  I like "Love Is Vain" on side 1 as well. It has a slight Gerry and the Pacemakers sound.

The Sunsets ( K D R )

In late 1974 The Sunsets from Elgin, Illinois released this 45. As you can tell from my copy of the record it is well used but even so the groups talent still shines thru. "I'll do whatever you want" starts off low and gradually builds to have a thumping beat. The flipside "Sunrise in Eden" is slower and has haunting vocals. Both songs are excellent.

St. George and The Dragons (Dragon)

Hello to all. In the mid 1960's the music scene in the Sacramento, California area had many good bands. One of those I wanted to highlight on the blog today. In 1965 the group St. George and the Dragons released their only record. The band's song "Trust Me" was featured on the compilation album The Sound Of Young Sacramento. For some strange reason the flip side "Donna Alone" which is quite good was not. Hope you enjoy the record as much as I do.
