Linda Jones - 'Hypnotized' / Rub(d)y Andrews - 'Casanova' on Teen Records. Bought it recently out of curiosity to add to my collection of Loma-related items.

Anyone know how this record came to be? I mean, it's an odd thing to have bootlegged, if that's what it is. Hypnotized was a chart hit in 67, so is hardly bootleg material. The flip is wrongly credited to RuDy Andrews when it should be RuBy.

My initial though was that maybe this was a special pressing for the American 'Teen' magazine, possibly as some sort of promotional giveaway, but I can't corroborate the address on the label (6872 Lake Ave, Las Vegas, Nevada) with the address of the publisher. Also, the vinyl is very lightweight, has a more modern feel to it, and the artwork looks as if it could have been scanned from somewhere else. Sound quality is suberb.

Does anybody have any information on this curiosity?

They seem to be all over the net like a rash, so not rare. According to one seller they're 1980s reissues

No idea why the misspelled name though.

Agreed, certainly not rare in any way. A very quick look on Google shows three copies for sale in Europe - Germany/Switzerland. I wonder if that's a clue as to its origin.

Again, I'm curious as to why this was even pressed at all.
