8/22/04: Mix Tape

A little while ago i posted a tape cover to one of my mix tapes on a message board i frequent and someone made the suggestion i post it... It wasn't this one but it got me thinking. For years and years before i had the digital turntable to burn my records into the computer i made mix tapes of my records for the car and work. I made them for friends and family as well. And i made them for the occasional girl... So i have hundreds of these silly things. I thought i would download a few put them on disk for the car rides now (yep, i have a CD player in the car now, no more tape player) and i thought why not put a few up on the blog. So you may be seeing a few of these over time now... enjoy them or not. i know i have and will...

Sparkle Moore - Skull And Cross Bones - Rock-A-Bop

You Should Be Labeled With A Skull And Cross Bones!

Your A Jinx To My Soul!

Sparkle Moore (born Barbara Morgan in 1939 in Omaha, Nebraska) is a rockabilly singer, who recorded only a few songs during her career, but was highly influential as a pioneer of female rockabilly. Her name was earned because of her similarity to Sparkle, a supporting character in the Dick Tracy comic strip. Sparkle dressed in men's clothing, often including leather, and sported an Elvis-influenced pompadour.
In 1956, she toured with Gene Vincent and was scheduled to perform on the Grand Ol' Opry, which was subsequently cancelled due to illness. In 1957, Sparkle retired from music after becoming pregnant to concentrate on raising a family.

This one has been on my hit list for a many a long year. Just unearthed for a scant 1 dollar. Its a well played little record but it still gots it!!!
