Ha! The first version I heard of 'Sack O Woe' was a cover by Manfred Mann.

Manfred Mann's version is great. This one features Joe Pass on guitar.

Hello Larry!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:30pm

That was a cover of a French band called the 5 Gentlemen. Two of the guys in the Sandals, the Georis brothers were (I believe) Swiss, thus the accents

One of the few instrumental covers I'm aware of

Gotta let Andrew Sandoval know about this version.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:40pm
Funky16Corners:

I'm sure he knows already
Avatar 3:40pm
Erica:

Knowing him Larry, yes.
Avatar 3:41pm
Erica:

Not that I know him that well.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:45pm
Funky16Corners:

I don't know him, either, but a look at the records he plays on his shows suggests to me that he has a huge collection
Avatar 3:46pm
Erica:

I just started listening to his show and added him on Facebook a month or so ago when I heard of Mike Nesmith's passing back in December.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:51pm
Funky16Corners:

He def knows his stuff
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 3:52pm
Brian in UK:

Larry, how many copies of H&R would have been pressed? Any ideas.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:53pm
Funky16Corners:

I don't know, but I have the LP and the 45s, and I've seen other copies of the LP, so I don't think it's rare
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 3:55pm
Brian in UK:

Just never heard them over here. Often happens.
So many records around.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:55pm
Funky16Corners:

I think their stuff was all recorded in the UK. One of the guys was English and the other Canadian
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:55pm
Funky16Corners:

In their defense, I don't think anyone heard them over here either
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 3:56pm
Brian in UK:

Thought that they were publishers.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:56pm
Funky16Corners:

It was two guys who took the names of the oublishers as pseudonyms. Their real names were Klaeysen and Murphy
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:57pm
Funky16Corners:

The album cover was designed by Dean Torrence of Jan and Dean: www.discogs.com...

This is a cover of a song originally done by The Groop on the Midnight Cowboy soundtrack
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:14pm

Sorry, I think the connection dropped for a bit there
Avatar 4:14pm

I thought it dropped, either that or it was my phone's player.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:15pm
Funky16Corners:

It def dropped, I had to reconnect on my end

The Carnival is an ear opener.

Rev-Ola did a CD reissue in 2004
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:20pm

Speaking of Manfred Mann, this is Mike Vickers of MM, in his Now Sound configuration. Only one 45 over here, but several albums and 45s under this name in the UK
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 4:24pm
Brian in UK:

Hint of Joe Meek.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:25pm
Funky16Corners:

This one is from Japan! A film composer named Nozomi Aoki!

Def a Meek soundalike!
