Miss Rose Marie Palmes' K-Tel Album Next on AiV
On the January 2014 edition of Adventures in Vinyl, we have a special K-Tel album from 1973. It is the Bright Side of Music. I picked up this album recently at a Goodwill store and when I brought it home, the first thing I noticed was its condition. It was remarkably free of dust, scuffs and scratches. And that's unusual for an album over 40 years old. Then I noticed the address label on the face of side one. This album was owned by "Miss Rose Marie Palmes," who lived at 4920 W. Augusta in Chicago back in 1973. I have several used albums on which people either wrote their names or placed address labels. And these albums generally are in better condition that the other albums. I guess someone who marks their albums takes their music very seriously. A couple of years ago, I found an album with a name and was able to make contact with the previous owner. Unfortunately, I have been unable to to find Miss Rose Marie Palmes. But I thank ...
