Description
This is the last copy left that's not NOS quality, although it came from the same box! Very good copy of THE POSSUMS two sided Fuzz Monster "She's Loving Me" b/w "King In My World" 45 on the JM label from 1967. Killer original Arizona Garage Rock now up for auction. Disc: VG+ (+). Plays M- with exception of two ticks at start of "She's Loving Me." Also there are some light superficial scuffs visible in direct light, both sides, a couple of small, light (pressing?) smudges in dead wax, and some writing ghosting on one side where someone wrote on the sleeve and it left the writing image on the vinyl surface. Labels are M-. See scans. You can see and hear both sides of this record on the In Groove Records You Tube clips (not the one I'm selling here of course). This is a 45 rpm record. A solid copy!
And now some history....JM Records 217 W, 3rd St. Scottsdale, AZ, was owned by Jerry Malouf, who's family was in the construction/real estate business. Malouf, known for his wild after concert parties, where the "In Crowd" would meet, hired Ray Lindstrom (Zoom Records - Tucson) to produce the session at Audio Recorders in late 1966. Tim Ramsey was the engineer. Lindstrom does not remember Malouf even being at the session. Musician Ken Walker told a "local scribe" some years ago that the music was actually performed by The Shi-Reeves, that included himself and Bob Narloch, both of whom would morph into Kennelmus a few years later. Lindstrom could only remember that there was a band in the studio, not that it was The Shi-Reeves. Walker also stated at the time that The Possums were "...a four member vocal quartet...there's nine guys in the studio and only four of them are Possums." Lead singer Michael Hubbard also wrote both of the songs that Lindstrom's Burtray Music published. There are three complete takes of "She's Loving Me" and two of "King In His World" listed on the tape box that also spelled the name; "The Possoms" The record was pressed (500) at Wakefield Manufacturing in Phoenix, in Feburary of 1967, House # sjw 9086.
