    “Tops” may not have been your most prestigious label, mostly offering $1.98 Lps in grocery stores by artists well past their prime or just simply anonymous (e.g. “antonio & his italianos”), but they knew how to lay the cheesecake on thick, and did early sleeves with jayne mansfield and mary tyler moore before they were famous.

    I’m pretty sure this cover model is Sandy Warner–the “Exotica Girl”. Compare this photo with the cover of “The Enchanted Sea”.

    That would be very interesting. Can anyone confirm that this is Sandy Warner?
