Will Stos asked:
> Is this out on CD anywhere?
Yes. The Concords have a CD of all the stuff they recorded,
and the song is also included in the following compilations:
"Dynamite Group Sounds," vol. 38
"Fabulous Groups," vol. 2
"Night Train Of Oldies," vol. 3
All those plus The Concords CD can be found at

Subject: Jackie DeShannon radio interview
I'll be airing an interview with Jackie DeShannon on "Lost and Found,"
WMBR (88.1 FM), Cambridge MA (webcasting at http://www.wmbr.org),
Thursday, Nov. 10 and 17, from 12n to 2p (EST).
I interviewed Jackie by phone in October. The first hour of the Nov. 10
show will feature songs by artists who influenced her, as selected by
her. The second hour will include portions of the interview, songs by
her and compositions of hers performed by other artists. The second
hour of the Nov. 17 show will be similar to the second hour of the first
show -- interview and music by her as singer and composer.
WMBR also archives its shows online for about two weeks after air date.
Details may be found at the station's web site.
"Lost and Found" airs every weekday on WMBR, and celebrated its 25th
anniversary this summer. We are dedicated to music of the '60s and
early '70s, but we strive to provide an alternative to the constricted
playlists of the commercial oldies and classic rock stations. As a
noncommercial station, we can dedicate an entire program to a single
artist or to some other musical topic.

Producer & Thursday host, "Lost and Found"

Subject: Lanny Duncan
I'm looking for some information on Lanny Duncan and I would bet
this is where to find it. I know that he released three singles
on Candix between 1960 and 1962, one of them being a version of
"Hold Me Thrill Me Kiss Me", and that he wrote "Let's Go (Pony)"
and a few other tracks for The Routers.
I understand that he later worked with Bones Howe as an arranger
and that he may have written some material for the 5th Dimension.
Nothing credited to him appears on any of their first five albums,
and I do not have any of their later albums to verify.
Does anyone who worked on a project with Bones recall working with
Lanny?
Also, what happened to the Candix masters? I know that just about all
of Lanny's tracks have popped up on various German rockabilly comps
but I don't know if they are grey area labels.
Regards,
pres

Subject: Linda Carr
Does anybody have any information on Linda Carr, who recorded for DCP?
I have two 45s by her, and am very curious who she was. All four songs
were written and produced by Teddy Randazzo.
