I believe that "Daddy, You Just Gotta Let Him In" by the
Satisfactions was included on the compilation . . .

Subject: Nashville Area S'poppers Meet Again
Nashville area S'poppers and friends welcomed Alan O'Day to town
this past Sunday (10/9). I've posted a photo. Top row: Tony Moon
(Dante/Evergreens +++), Stuart Coleman (BBC DJ who has a new CD
of his bands Pinkerton's Assorted Colours/Flying Machine), Steve
Jarrell (Sons of The Beach), "Willy C." Swanke (beach music DJ),
Denny Martin (in bands with Alan since the 60s). Front row Alan
O'Day, Garry Tallent (E Street Band), me, Buck Wilkins (Ronnie/
Daytonas). Bucky and Garry had just bought the DVD of the 1962
cult R&R movie "Wild Guitar", which Alan scored, and he talked
about that plus early gigs in Vietnam and Vegas, backing the
Righteous Brothers and his hits "Rock And Roll Heaven", "Angie
Baby" and "Undercover Angel" among much more.

My friend Steve and I were huge fans of Joe's overnight WHAS shift.
We always had him on when we were traveling out on our cross-
country road treks. I have a few shows on old cassettes, one
features a local Louisville, KY music collector named Leonard Yates
(Gates?) who brought some neat 45s. We only got maybe an hour of
the show though. A blast to hear the Merseybeats USA debut disc,
"You'll Come Back" blaring thru the transistor radio.

It shoulda been a pre-Boots Nancy Sinatra single...imagine Frank's
cameo in the video as a Hell's Angel shows up at the door fleeing
"trouble on the road" while Nancy pleads the boy's case...perhaps
in a baby-doll nightie.

WHY did Haley hate "13 Women?" Because it was a
post-nuclear tune or because it wasn't a dance tune?
It's a dark rocker and musically superior to anything
Haley derived from Joe Turner.

Hi Mick,
The Trashmen's version of this tune is indeed available, on Sundazed's 80-track boxset,
"Bird Call!: The Twin City Stomp of the Trashmen," issued in 1998. One of these days I'll pick this set up...
Best, Frank

Subject: Spector retracts gun statement
"Music producer Phil Spector was suffering withdrawal symptoms from
prescription drugs when he told police he had shot and killed a woman at his
mansion in 2003, his defence attorneys argue in court papers."
