Basically your private press folk record with a homemade cover. The cover is a one color label (sheet of peel-n-stick) fixed to a jacket blank.

The jacket is signed on the back by all of the artists to "The Blooms" (Steve Bloom's family).

Steve is listed as a band member on the label.

Sorry about the audio quality… the disc is well worn.

1965?

Terrific lounge LP, signed by Dave (the guitar playing Baney).

The notes mention that Don Gauck (not a Baney obviously) was playing The Lookout House which was a happening joint (destroyed by fire in 1973) in the Cincinnati area (Ft. Wright, KY). This is a local connection for me which is why I mention it. The fire date also helps to date the recording.

Well... I could not find this guy online and there is no last name to be found on the jacket.

He looks like Donald from the TV show That Girl. He's not fooling me for one moment. This guy is a Donald impersonator!

I wonder where in the Sam Hill he is now?
