With the 50th anniversary of the landing on the moon I thought it would be fitting to repost a record by Steve Robbins. His 1970 song "Armstrong" pays tribute to the first person (Neil Armstrong) to walk on the moon.

Jeff Cain (Altera)
Very little is known about Jeff Cain or the Altera record label. All copies of the 45 that I have seen have "Demo" stamped on the A side. Both songs are great."Lonely Boy" has a good beat with haunting vocals and "Oh Tomorrow" has a jangly folk sound. Nice record!

The Kordels (Young)
The Kordels hailed from the Long Beach, California area. In 1966 the Kordels released their only record. The best song on the record is side two."That Girl Of Mine" has a similar sound to the Turtles "Your Maw Said You Cried".

The Septors (DOME)
Dome records released several 45's of Baltimore, Maryland area groups in the 1960's but the record label is mostly remembered for the 1966 compilation album "Baltimore's Teen Beat A Go Go". Featured today is a 45 that came out in early 1966 by The Septors. Songs on the record are "Little Sandy" and "Den of Thieves" written by Jim Harrelson. The A side "Little Sandy" is a very good teen ballad , the B side "Den of Thieves" has horns from beginning to the end..
