    A side / B side #2

    *****

    ...... It's not too often that a 12" features two different artists on each side . This one from 1976 does that ... and carries it a step further ... two different labels !! I don't think I've seen it any other time ....(?)....... I'm sure one is a subsidiary of the other .. still ... they are labeled individually ...each having their own typefaces and label names .... I'll call the bigger song the "green " labeled side and the flip the "red" labeled side since they are colored that way .....

    Know it ?? :-? ??

    Well that is tres bizarro...but since ya gave me the answer...

    #4= Do It Any Way You Wanna - People's Choice (TSOP)

    #19= Doctor's Orders - Carol Douglas (Midland Intl.)

    TSOP was in the Columbia/Epic family; Midland Intl. from the RCA family... how did they get released on the same 12"????

    Marky , Marky , Marky ..... " _____" (see song #76 for 1975) :P

    The clue was that the red side was the #19th ranked LABEL for 1975 , and the green side was ranked @ #4 ......

    So to jump ahead .... that means the red label is WAND
    ............................ and the green label is SCEPTOR

    remember though ..... the 12" in question was released in 1976 .....

    so what the heck was this happy bouncy record ( green side ) that I'm enjoying listening to right now ..... as I type this ...... ..... :-?
