Longbranch Pennywhistle LP?????

Post by Red Kilby »

1st off I have been looking for this album for awile. It was a rock and roll LP with Buddy Emmons playing steel on it Doug Kershaw playing fiddle, and James Burton playing Lead Guitar. It is on the Amos lable, does anyone out there have a copy of this LP???? Or know of one??? Let me Know???

I had a copy that JD had given me when I occasionally played with those guys (way before the Eagles!), and JD and Glen autographed it for me. I sold it to a record collector/dealer about 4 years ago, and I understand it's now very collectible amongst the European record collectors. So look to pay the big bucks. I could put you in touch with someone if you're serious about having a copy.

Herb's right, that LP is getting really hard to get at any price,partially due to the fact that it's a cult collectable; as well as the fact there was only a couple of releases on the label and neither of them sold to well in 1970.

Longbranch Pennywhistle were regulars around the Troubador scene, but outside of that they were quite unknown. I would like to see a proper CD release one day, it will happen one of these days I'm sure.
