Reach for the sky
This is a “talking yearbook” put out by the class of the Miramonte High School in 1963-64. Recordings of school events put together throughout the year and produced in place of a traditional yearbook. I just like the hands.

Da bears!
Not that cuddly. Kinda scary.
This is on Diplomat Records which was “a product of the Synthetic Plastics Co.”, New Jersey. I guess if you had the plastic and could press the vinyl, you could put out a record. It says on the back cover, “Diplomat Records are the leading quality line of value priced phonograph records.” “Fine records need not be expensive.” Labels like Diplomat, Halo and Hollywood just recycled stock music by anonymous groups, orchestras and symphonies. Background music for the budget-conscious. While the great labels recorded new music by great artists packaged in the work of the best photographers and graphic designers, the cheap records put out by plastic companies remain of interest only to collectors of kitch and cultural artifacts.
FYI, they must have run out of “bear” songs as the last two on the record are “Ozzie the Ostrich” and “Pancho the Circus Donkey.”

A real mother for ya
This is Dorothy Freyberger’s second record. She got her start at the Minnesota State Fair. (I was at the state fair last year! Unfortunately, Dorothy wasn’t performing but you could get a wide range of foods on a stick, pet the livestock and have all the fresh milk you could drink for just one dollar.) Dorothy kicks off this sophmore release with “Big Momma.” Some other tracks of note, “Too Old to Cut the Mustard” and “Big Fat Gal” round out a session of standards.
