Mexi-Kerr
Here's an album that sounds a lot like when your mom singing along with her Herb Alpert albums while she was doing the housework. You mom, not mine, mine sort of hums along with music. Drives me nuts.
This album is notable in that it contains probably the most heinous version of "Michelle" ever recorded, even worse than the Beatles version, if such a thing is possible. .
And the intentionally funny, though ethnically insensitive, liner notes are actually kinda funny.
This seems like the sort of album that would have made the rounds 20 times or more online already--if you already have it, lucky you, because this version is scratched to death. Vaya con Queso, y'all!

It's no wonder they called Stan Cornyn "King Of Liner Notes".
These are priceless. They will go straight into my Cornyn folder.
Thanks for sharing!
What the hell was Anita Kerr doing driving around outside of Prescott Arizona...? This all stinks of gun running or sex slavery or some kinda jazz singing sleaze...and you're right about the beatles' michelle...yeesh
Hey Balk. This is actually a great example of Stan Cornyn's liner note-ariety. There are many, many more, including great stuff for Sinatra and Dino during the 60s. Go to Spaceagepop.com and search for Cornyn. There you will find more information about this genius of the genus "liner notes" - and have fun.

Far out, as usual. Thx!
One of my most prized possessions. Found in the bins at "Fred's Action House". Anita Kerr did three of these. The 2nd showed up on the blogosphere, LoungeTracks. Still waiting for the third one to show up! Then my life will be complete.
