I'm gonna try to not blame anyone else for my crazy decision. No, Sammy, nobody put any guns to your head making you go and do this. It's just that sometimes, something comes along and gets me interested, then I see a record for sale online, and I think I just have to plunk down and get it. That's the situation with the 45 I have here.
     There's a post on Bob Purse's "The Wonderful and the Obscure" that has a couple of intriguing songs. After reading about, and of course hearing, these songs, I got curious, and did a search for that "Cupid's Thing" song that those other songs seem to be discussing. And in the words of Clara Peller, what else can I say, "I found it". So here's the 45.
Let's start with side 1.
Please Don't Call Me Again - Gene Marshall Download
And now...
Cupid's Thing - Gene Marshall Download
     So now, we add another name to the list of folks who sent in out-there words to song-poem companies. Thomas Guygax, James Wilson, Jr., Michael Kasberg - and now John E. Lester.
     Finally, I have another Gene Marshall 45 that has a song with this title. I got the photo from the E-Bay listing I ordered this from.
