Surprise-partie Chez Wanda! Philips (France) Oui, oui! I love this one. Not a beauty, just something about her. Sucking in her cheeks for the instant “model” look. Pouty lips. Her narrowed eyes. Hands behind her head like she just don’t care. What do you chez, Wanda?

Dr. Suze and Lewis Carroll
Carl de Suze reading stories from the Walrus and Carpenter and Jabberwocky Pathways of Sound Records
Jabberwocky by Lewis Carroll
’Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.
“Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun
The frumious Bandersnatch!”
He took his vorpal sword in hand;
Long time the manxome foe he sought—
So rested he by the Tumtum tree
And stood awhile in thought.
And, as in uffish thought he stood,
The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame,
Came whiffling through the tulgey wood,
And burbled as it came!
One, two! One, two! And through and through
The vorpal blade went snicker-snack!
He left it dead, and with its head
He went galumphing back.
“And hast thou slain the Jabberwock?
Come to my arms, my beamish boy!
O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!”
He chortled in his joy.
’Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.

Signed, sealed, delivered!
The Letter The Box Tops EMI/Stateside Records (Australia) (1967) Nice cover art for this huge #1 song sung by 16 year-old Alex Chilton. Love that opening drumbeat and classic first line “Give me a ticket for an Aero-plane”! It’s been covered many times. I’m most fond of Al Green’s early recording.
