BOB HARRINGTON with
DON NORMAN & THE OTHER 4
Changes / Country Boy SAMPLE ♫
Canada Reo 8947X (1966)
Mega Obscure Ottawa, Canadian Frat Garage! Souped-up "Louie Louie" inspired Heinz cover and a nice Folk-rock cover of the great Phil Ochs tune. Bob Harrington hit the scene in 1962 as the original lead vocalist for The Esquires on Capitol Records (he's on their first 2 singles). Here, Bob is backed by his 1964 replacement in the Esquires! - Don Norman & The Other 4, whose members also produced this record. In fact, it was recorded at the same session as "The Bounce", their Barry 45 - a two record demo deal they negotiated with Quality Records in Toronto. John D. Pozer (CJET Radio, Saturday Date tv show & future Sir John A. Records founder) was managing both acts at the time. It is well documented that fewer than 500 copies were made, and that many were melted back in the vinyl vat at Quality Records. Possibly the rarest Sir John A. related record, and certainly the rarest material by Don & The Other 4. Lack of distribution and poor sales are actually what prompted Pozer to start his own indie label with Other 4 organist/guitarist Ron Greene in November 1966. Visit this website
