Brenton Wood “Oogum Boogum” Double Shot Records. (1967) This lp features the AM radio staple “Gimme Little Sign” and “Oogum Boogum” another charting hit. Coming out of Compton, Los Angeles there’s a Chicano or Latin-soul vibe to Brenton’s records. I love his songs, especially the sweet soul sounds of “Catch You On the Rebound,” “Baby You Got It” and also on this album “I Like the Way You Love Me”.

Richard Hayman “Serenata para Amar” Mercury from Brazil. Look at the composition. His hand on her wrist. Those lips. The lines of his shirt. The shag carpet and the dropped record. Her eyes!
