Even more rare this song was being played in a movie starring a 19 yr. old Helen Mirren and James Mason in 1969.

[myrecordcollection]

[mozartfx1]

I love that Free Design album cover. Records are wonderful. Like an interactive artistic time capsule. I love seeing them. Thanks.

[AmbrillaMusic]

@myrecordcollection no, Marietta.:D

[Breendonkfilms]

I have ALL of them (not kidding) ;)

and a lot more.... been collecting

for the past 30 years and bought

internationally.

Once considered "guilty pleasure" music (you were supposed to like Beatles/Stones/Doors/Hendrix/V­an Morrison), these are an affordable alternative to the others. These are sort of the bands who wanted to rock but didn't want to indulge on LSD or pot, so I like to call this "soft hippie" music, and some of this evolved into the soft rock/AOR of the '70s and '80s.

I'm happy to say I have a bunch of these!!! :) Rock on brother

[newwavepopman]

There seems to be price guides out there for every other form of music,but none on any of these.And I am still wondering why? It's not that there isn't any collectors of Sunshine Pop,Bubblegum,,or Power Pop out there,because worldwide there is a ton of collectors out there who collect and buy it.I know that I do,and would love to see a price guide on them.So what gives?

[newwavepopman]

Thank you so much for sharing your collection.There really needs to be a price guide for Sunshine Pop,Bubblegum,and Power Pop,so that people who collect music from these genres know how much their records of these artists are worth in value,and also for artists of these genres who are more obscure than the ones that you talked about here.There really needs to be a 45,and an LP price guide on these music gfenres.
