First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. Not books but three 12-inch, 33-1/3 rpm vinyl record albums by three good-looking hunks not initially famed for their tune stylings. A Merchant Marine veteran and former football star, the 6-foot-six Clint Walker passed a Warner Brothers' screen test in 1955 and was immediately signed to the leading role in the new TV series "Cheyenne." Roger Smith is billed here as the "Star of (Warner Bros. TV series) "77 Sunset Strip" (apparently no one wanted Efrem Zimbalist, Jr, to take his shirt off, though the producers actually scored better on vinyl with the show's parking lot attendant, Edd "Kookie" Burns.) Smith here reprises songs he reportedly used to sing for coins on the beach at Waikiki, plus "Beach Time," written especially for this album by Ray and Dick Sherman. (Both those albums 1959.) Our third album, Marina Records MRA-2501, a DJ white-label promo disc from 1971, very-good-plus vinyl in a very-good jacket, produced by Nino Tempo (who plays the sax solo on the Goffin-King number "Hey Girl"), features the blue-eyed Chad Everett, who starred as Dr. Joe Gannon on the CBS TV series "Medical Center." The package of three LPs now reduced from $22.
