HAVE YOU STILL GOT THE GARLAND GREEN OR THE SONNY CHILDE ALBUMS ?

CHRIS

[Sunnysoul]

I'll take the Coasters LP if its still there .

What's the cover pic/ design like ? Is it the one with the old drunk with a bottle in his hand and a hat on , as on the US King original LP ?

Which UK London label design is it ? The plain black one with silver writing I guess ?

Cheers!
