  • Also,DO NOT buy vinyl singles from anybody JUST so they can press a "gray" CD

    of "Don't Stop The Carnival". They are borderline bootleggers! (If you MUST have

    the actual vinyl record,that's another matter.)

    EMI currently owns the rights to Laurie Records masters. NOBODY has ever re-issued The Sound Investment recordings on CD or download.

  • I demand to know why in the hell their main song, "Don't Stop The Carnival", was

    removed.

    That song is UNAVAILABLE anywhere except for a couple of VINYL copies,and therefore is considered Fair Use.

    I am a former Houstonian who was a teenager in the Sixties,and have memories

    of hearing that song on KNUZ (or maybe even KFMK,KRBE) or something.

    Thought that "Don't Stop The Carnival" had an organ part similar to Jackie Wilson's "I'll Be Satisfied"? LOL!

  • @Fini2010 Hey, who was your guitar teacher. We also bought matching Kustom 200 amps, but I can't remember where.

  • Hey guys!! I cannot believe my ears....Yes its me Toni Robberts once married to Ray. He was such a goof. I loved him to death I really think we were just way too young. Hey Ray if you are out there You still rock in my eyes..Hey Blackie, how are you and what have you been up to??

  • thanks for the post. yes we both went to Rayburn (69 graduates). sadly, curt took his own life in the mid-70's. Me (mike bleike) and the rest of The Sound Investment got back together in the 90's as Blackie and The Bullets..several videos of that reincarnation posted here. yes, most of us are still alive and kicking. looking forward to 40th SR reunion Aug 22 at South Shore Harbor.

  • Wow this brings back some memories of being in the 6th grade in Houston. Thanks for posting this song!!!

  • Hey TomCat. I used to go to the Foley's Town Hall music show every Saturday morning or whenever they had it. I got to see The Union. They had a song called I Sit and Cry I live in Hou TX

  • Wow, you guys could climb the ladder back in the day. Too cool.
