From 1964,
Life magazine's excellent album of band + vocal covers of vintage Presidential campaign songs going back 160 years.
Life issued this version as a freebie to attract advertisers, and the same year Columbia Records sold it commercially in slightly different packaging. You'll tap your toe, you'll sap a tree, you'll wonder "Are ALL these lyrics stupid, or is it just me?" (Spoiler: the lyrics to campaign songs are always VERY, VERY STUPID.) Hat tip to Jason Klamm for loaning me this record from his collection - thanks again Jason!
Album audio & artwork
DISCLAIMER: To the best of my knowledge,
this work is out of print and not available for purchase in any format. If you
are the artist and are planning a reissue, please let me know and I’ll remove
it from the blog. Also please get in touch if you’ve lost your art &/or
sound masters and would like to talk with me about my restoration work.
It may be VERY STUPID, STUPID and DUMB, but who better than Taylor to preserve this stuff. As always, perfect.
