Greetings all.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Today\u2019s selection sees us returning to the \u201cyou find groovy music in the strangest places file\u201d, as well as another visit from our friend Sandy Nelson.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Long story short, Sandy Nelson was one of the most ubiquitous instrumental artists of the 1960s. The drummer had his first hits with \u2018Teen Beat\u2019 in 1959 and \u2018Let There Be Drums\u2019 in 1961, and though he didn\u2019t make much of a stir on the charts after that, he churned out a steady succession of LPs (mostly for Imperial) in the 60s and early 70s, covering rock, pop and soul hits with a fair amount of style and verve, backed by the cream of LA sessioners.<\/p>\n

Today\u2019s selection is Nelson\u2019s 1966 cover of my all-time favorite Supremes<\/strong> cut \u2018Love Is Like an Itching In My Heart\u2019.<\/p>\n

Released on his \u2018Superdrums\u2019 LP, Nelson\u2019s version of the tune has enough punch and style to make it on a soul dance floor. He hits that snare drum like it owes him money, and the arrangement, heavy on guitar and sax is a killer.<\/p>\n

Nelson had enough style imbue his soul covers with plenty of heat\u00a0(I really wish I had this one on a 45), and managed to attack garage and pop tunes with the same verve.<\/p>\n

His records are cheap and easy to find at your better garage sales and flea markets (or on-line if that\u2019s how you roll), and there is always something cool on them.<\/p>\n

So get digging, and I\u2019ll see you on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

Keep the faith<\/strong><\/p>\n
