Who’s on first?

Our friend Jerome in France sent this. It was his first record ever. Circa 1966. He said his mom got it for him at around age three. I think my first single was “King of the Road” – maybe the same year! What was yours?

Sun Records picture sleeve and hit single by the great Jerry Lee Lewis. “Great Balls of Fire” with B-side “You Win Again”
The Nutty Squirrels. Created and produced by Sascha Burland and Don Elliott. Hanover Records. “Salt Peanuts” 1959.

“The Unforgettable Eddie Cochran” Liberty EP. Eddie Cochran was only 21 in 1960 when he died in a tragic accident while on tour in England.
“Girl with Cat’s Eye” (I’m assuming that this is just a awkward translation and that she doesn’t have just one cat’s eye but “cat eyes”. But she seems so sad. Cat eyes can be exotic and quite nice. It’s not a disease or something.) Regardless I like the graphics.
A BLIMP, a WHIMP and a SKIMP. “On a Rocket Trip to the Moon! Via Skyway’s Rocket Ship From Your Launch Pad” Featuring Miss Louis Lewis. Skyway Records. 1964. This is crazy!
