Music for Hand-Jiving on London Records. A compilation of hits by Tommy Steele, The Blue Jeans and The Four Jacks, etc.
Hand-Jiving involves a complicated pattern of hand moves and claps including thigh slapping, cross-wrist slapping, fist pounding, chest slapping and pounding, hand clapping, elbow touching and hitch hike moves. It resembles a highly elaborate version of pat-a-cake. The hand jive was popularized by Johnny Otis’ 1958 hit “Willie and the Hand Jive”. Eric Clapton did a version of the song in 1974 that reached the Top 40.

Stubby Kaye. “Music for Chubby Lovers” Seeco. Occasionally you’ll see — as I do now pulling records off the shelf to post here — how I used to insert myself into various cover scenes. This was pre-photoshop obviously.

“Come sit a spell” Joe Pelham’s Outhouse II (Sequel to “That Wonderful Old Two Holer”).
This was unearthed at a salvation army up in Maine. $.59 later here it is courtesy of Calvin, another lp cover lover: “Here is a cover called OUTHOUSE II. “The Shack is Back” more tales, poems, and songs about a classic rural-Maine subject.“
