Proud Frankie
FOUND by Mike
in Savannah, GA
I got this record at the local flea market. I bought it from someone who definitely wasn't Frankie's parents. I researched this "Frankie" and found out that it probably is Franky Bandy, who actually started this "TearDrop" Records in Chicago.

We collect FOUND stuff: love letters, birthday cards, kids' homework,
to-do lists, ticket stubs, poetry on napkins, telephone bills, doodles -
anything that gives a glimpse into someone
else's life. Anything goes...
What's the music like?
And how could any mom or dad part with their offspring's creation? Even if they died, how did this family treasure end up in the donations and discards pile?
I'm sorry, but once I noticed that, um, object protuding from underneath Hip Linkchain's seat, I can't look at anything else in the picture.
Lucky you Mike! Great find!
He doesn't know how to spell his own name?
You wanna find this album in a library, you gotta be makin' tracks to either the Library of Congress or to the University of Mississippi. Least ways, they's the only ones admitting to havin' it in a national database we calls "WorldCat."
Here's what you call your play list from this 1982 album: Somebody stole my mule ; Don't your peaches look mellow ; Going down slow ; Blow wind blow ; I don't know (Hip Linkchain) -- Find myself ; Floating bridge ; Dorcie bell ; Cold chills ; Rock me baby (Jimmy Rogers).
Just in case you be lookin' for some bluesy' tunes.
(Linkchain, by the way, released at least 4 other albums between 1981--1987; Jimmy Rogers may have been on a lot of blues albums, but with a more common-counding name I wouldn't swear he's the same guy.)
Thanks Librarian for the great info. I would love to hear Don't Your Peaches Look Mellow.
What a great find!and with Librarians info even better! They have huge flea markets every week where I live and I always think it's so sad when you find super personal stuff like this..and I wonder what happened..I buy old old pictures of families cus I think that was treasured at one time.
Lolita said "peaches"!
(snicker, snicker, wink, wink, nudge, nudge)
You're the cutest thing I ever did see
Really love your peaches, wanna shake your tree
I wrote a little song about it and it goes like this...
... (aaaawhho who)
made a little record...
then another a second time around...
we tried and tried but never got down (aaaawhho who)
ventually wen outta biniz (aaa hee hee)
Lordy I got troubles
Record labels closin'down...
Closing up them doors
Movin' outta town..
poor kid
Once I read Kermit's comment, I couldn't look at anything else in the picture
Picture of two hep cats.
Neither of them ceramic.
This is indeed a sweet find. Nice going~
Anyone else think these three songs back to back sound rather sexual? Don't your peaches look mellow, Going down slow, Blow wind blow.
Dude was just horny.
That Hip Linkchain, what a riot! I remember them days well.
So archetypal that it reads like a spoof: Hip. Linkchain. Performing "Stickshift." A-huhhn-huhhnn-hunnnh.
