Ah, the memories! I bought this via mail order from NRBQ back in the early 80s. My copy has 'Wacky Tobacky' on the flip side. Still have a stack of their semi-regular newsletters. They even sent a complimentary Xmas single one year. Thanks.

Thanks,Terry Adams(??!!??)

A really nice one, 1970s or 1980s? However, what's the label name? Red Rooster or Rounder or both?? I dunno...
Red Rooster was a Rounder imprint from 1979 during the gas shortage. This was featured on a TV short about the US short supply of gas

The stereo sound coming from my closely spaced monitors is excellent.
Growing up in CT heard NRBQ played on WHCN requently. The DJ, Bill Nozzle(The Nozz) seemed to favor the band. Heard they were friends...
Odd and even days...memories, like the corners of my twisted mind, misty muddy colored...
