More of the weird and wonderful this week as we hear a 50s pop group figuring out how to do rock & roll, an obscure R&B record from the equally obscure Bobby Mandolph, a Fillipino-African-American-Latin soul singer with an infectious dance number, a vocal harmony group doing a song with a bizarre spoken recitation that inspired Frank Zappa, plus newer vintage music from Alex Pangman, Little Rachel and a lot more.
