9. Abba All added in the meantime

Surprisingly two original songs are lacking on your data base

Original Audio single,

Label (in Germany at least): Polydor, Catalog No.: 2040 120,

(in Sweden on Polar, same Catalog No.!), released in April 1974

A-Side: “Honey Honey”, written by Andersson/Anderson/Ulvaeus

There were releases backed with different songs, the best known is the one

with a “recycled” former 7’ A-side from the time when the abbreviation “ABBA”

wasn’t invented yet:

B-Side: “Ring Ring” written by Andersson/Anderson/Ulvaeus/Neil Sedaka (!)/ Phil Cody

Neil Sedaka wrote the English Lyrics of “Ring Ring”!


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


10. Rocco Granata Remixes are not added to the database

Of course Rocco is on your data base since he is living in Belgium!

He covered his smash hit “Marina” himself using the artists name “Rocco & the Carnations” in 1989:

original Audio Single:

“Marina (Remix ’89)” (120 bpm)

backed with

“Marina (original mono)”

[however, this is not the mix which was released in Germany in 1959, my mother bought the single and I still own it!]

Label: zyx records, Catalog No.: ZYX 6177-7


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

11. Roy Orbison All added in the meantime

Hank Williams the Roy Orbison Way

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hank_Williams_The_Roy_Orbison_Way

Label: MGM, Catalog No.: SE-4683

There are the following Hank Williams originals on:

12. Middle of the Road

Original Audio single, Label: RCA, Catalog No.: 74-16151

Released: March 1972

A-Side:

“Talk of all the U.S.A.”

Backed with

“Samson and Delilah” Added in the meantime

Both original songs were written by Lally Stott and Mario & Giosy Capuano

(Stott wrote the smash hit “Chirpy Chirpy Cheep Cheep” as well, but there’s no sign that he again cut these songs first, what he did with “Chirpy”!)

There was the release of several picture sleeves of the single, and they are different regarding the printed letter size of the two songs, indicating that there was no straight idea which song was the A-side really. However, “Samson” mainly charted!
