The Templeton Twins - Trill It Like It Was

Contributions are pouring in left and right. This one from Splendagrass. And boy is it a goody. Ever heard of Incredibly Strange Music? This would certainly qualify. I searched the web for info on this offering and found very little. Mostly Dr. Demento links. So you get the picture on this ones genre.

Take 60's and 70's hits rework them into a 1930's arrangements complete with Rudy Vallee style vocals and you have the The Templeton Twins with Teddy Turners Bunson Burners. Great stuff, great rip and a great listen. "Light My Fire" is the sound selection above, and all of the remaining selections are equally good!

Thanks again to those who take the time to rip and share their precious vinyl with Licorice Pizza and our visitors. Splendagrass, joeberl and last and certainly not least, the roving Sharemeister of Easy Listening, LoungeTracks.

Also, check out our Featured Blog - Dr. Forrest's Cheese Factory (found at the end of the blogroll) specifically this post for the album Silly Beatles! The Templeton Twins make an appearance on this album with "Yesterday"

And from now on what your looking for is in the Comments! Leave one while your there.

Fun stuff! Not enough tongue-in-cheeky records out there, thanks Splendagrass!

It's stuff like this and the fine work by LP that has inspired me to post some more albums. Only a couple or three up now but more in the pipeline - all out of print vinyl @ 320 w/ scans.

Got a second, take a look:

Just when you think you've heard it all (like when you've heard Mitch Miller and the Gang singing Give Peace A Chance) along comes something splendid like this! Thanks so much!
