The Feel It Advent-ure 2020: Door 18


I have just found this in the box. I have no recollection of when, or where, I bought this record. Which is unusual. It's like I'm playing it for the first time. This is a great double sider.

The black star on this promo copy is a sign that Why Are You Afraid was the plug side. But I see a an X written on the other side too, which is a sign that someone, a DJ or a previous owner, preferred the Darling side. I'm leaning towards that one too. Roscoe is in fine voice and I particularly like the guitar fills.

I wonder who Barbara was, and where she lived? Unlike the Major Lance record behind Door 12, with no surname or address to go on I will never know.
