Who'da thunk? Abt. 1960-63, or so. BTW, I 'love' Mr. Orange - he's marginally brilliant!

It worked out to 25 cents per album, and I would re-sell them at a dollar each. Even if I only sold 90% of them, that would be enough money for me to quit my job and enjoy a life of leisure in Guatemala. <br /><br />Needless to say, it didn't work out as I had planned. I still have all the records AND the boxcar they came in. You guessed it; I didn't read the fine print on the purchase contract, and unknowingly bought the boxcar itself.<br /><br />I sometimes play one of the 'Trees of the Lord albums on the old sterio, the songs really aren't that bad. In fact, after listening for a while they kind of grow on you.<br /><br />I never saw Slick Benny again, but recently an acquaintance (who, coincidently has a boxcar in his back yard, same as me) said that he heard that Benny was enjoying a life of leisure in Guatemala.stranger.strange.landhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18095085549321636456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5882165486994692239.post-17594400907235715802009-10-12T08:51:55.992+03:002009-10-12T08:51:55.992+03:00Her first album was "Those Ever Precious Pine...Her first album was "Those Ever Precious Pine Cones" and sold over thirteen copies the first week!Eddie Eddingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15864410680077755048noreply@blogger.com
