CONRAD AND THE VAN-DELLS —- DAYTON

From Dayton, circa 1959 comes a moovin’ instrumental. What little info I could dig up on this great 2-sider is that the BMC label was owned by Les Bodine and this looks to be the 2nd of four releases by the label. More info needed…but until then, a listen is mandatory!

THE VACANT LOT —- DAYTON

With only one mid-60’s 45rpm release, Dayton’s The Vacant Lot was host to local talent Roger Sayre. The band morphed from another which was called The X-cellents. The hunt is on for something by them! Some cool keyboards heard on this side.

ART HARMON AND THE HARMONAIRES —- DAYTON

From 1967 comes a release by Art Harmon. Dig the cool PIXIE label graphics where the chick spells out the label name! The PIXIE label was a house label of the Mega City Recording studio.

 From 1964 out of Dayton comes this Bobby Farrell 45rpm. Released on his own label, BFM which I believe stands for Bobby Farrell Music.

Here’s a beat-up copy of a soul number from Dayton. On the GREENSTAR label, not sure of release date. My guess is mid-60’s ??
