1968 - CRUISING WITH RUBEN & THE JETS - - RARE ORIGINAL GERMAN VERSION LP ON WHICH THEY REMOVED THE SONG "DESERI" NOT ONLY FROM THE RECORD, BUT ALSO FROM THE COVER - SO NOW I KNOW SOMEBODY SOMEWHERE IS SCRATCHING THEIR OVER SIZED RONDO HATTON TYPE OF BEMIS HEAD MUMBLING, I WONDER WHY, YES WHY DID THE GERMANS NOT INCLUDE THE SONG "DESERI"? HUH? WELL LARRY, IF YOU'VE EVER HEARD THE SONG "DESERI", YOU MIGHT HAVE NOTICED ONE OF THE LYRICS ARE "WE CAN SHARE A LOVE DIVINE" AND YOU KNOW WHAT SHARING LOVE MEANS DON'T YOU? THAT'S RIGHT, SCREWING AND THEY DON'T ALLOW ANY OF THAT IN GERMANY. YET EVEN WITHOUT THE SONG DESERI, I BET THAT BY LISTENING TO THE NIFTY BEAT OF RUBEN AND THE JETS, THERE WILL UNDOUBTEDLY BE SOME PEOPLE WHO WILL NOT ONLY WANT TO LEARN HOW TO DO THE BOP, BUT ALSO JUST MIGHT WANNA RECEIVE SOME TRAINING ON HOW TO COMB AND SET A JELLYROLL. SO DUE TO THE FACT THAT I FEEL THAT IT'S MY DUTY, I'M GONNA PROVIDE YEZ WITH DETAILED INSERTS FOR THE VERY INFORMATION YOU SEEK- THESE ARE COPIES OF THE INSERTS THAT HAD BEEN PROVIDED INSIDE OF THE OLD MASTERS BOX ONE SET IN 1984 - THE CATALOG NUMBER OF THIS RARE 'N EXCITING GERMAN LP IS: VERVE RECORDS - 710 020 AND INCLUDES THE GATEFOLD COVER WITH LYRICS TO ALL OF THE SONGS THAT THEY DID DECIDE TO INCLUDE PRINTED INSIDE. ALSO WHILE I'M ON THE SUBJECT OF SONG LYRICS, YEZ JUST MIGHT WANNA BE CAREFUL ABOUT WITH WHOM YEZ ARE SINGING ALONG WITH THESE DAYS - OK LARRY? 

IS IT JUST ME OR DOES MITCH MILLER LOOK LIKE THE DEVIL? YEAH, IF YOU'RE A DINOSAUR GEEZER YOU KNOW WHO I'M TALKING ABOUT, HE HAD THAT SING ALONG WITH MITCH TV SHOW. WELL NOT ONLY WAS HE SCARY LOOKING, BUT HE WAS AN A&R MAN FOR MERCURY AND COLUMBIA RECORDS. THAT'S RIGHT, HE WAS A RECORD COMPANY EXECUTIVE AND HE HATED ROCK 'N' ROLL. IN 1958 HE SAID "ROCK 'N' ROLL IS MUSICAL BABY FOOD. IT IS THE WORSHIP OF MEDIOCRITY, BROUGHT ABOUT BY A PASSION OF CONFORMITY". HUH? THEY SAY HE WAS BORN IN 1911 AND CROAKED IN 2010, BUT I DON'T BELIEVE IT. BECAUSE, NOW CHECK THIS OUT: A FEW YEARS AGO THEY FOUND SOME OLD PAPYRUS SCROLLS IN SOME CAVE IN THE MIDDLE EAST. WHEN THEY DECIPHERED THEM, TO THEIR AMAZEMENT THEY DISCOVERED THAT ONE OF THEM SAID THAT THE DEVIL WOULD RETURN AS A RECORD COMPANY EXECUTIVE. HEY, THEY WERE WEARING SANDALS AROUND BACK THEN AND RECORDS DIDN'T EVEN EXIST. SO HOW DID THEY KNOW THAT? NOW THE GOVERNMENTS BEEN TRYING TO KEEP IT QUIET, THEY DON'T WANNA CREATE A WORLD WIDE PANIC. BESIDES, I HEAR THAT THEY'RE TRYING TO CHECK OUT IF MITCH REALLY DID CROAK, OR IF HE'S STILL LURKING AROUND SOMEWHERE. SO ROCK 'N' ROLL MIGHT NOT REALLY BE SATAN'S MUSIC, AND YEZ BETTER BE CAREFUL ABOUT WHO YEZ SING ALONG WITH THESE DAYS. OK LARRY?

SIDE ONE POOTS FORTH: CHEAP THRILLS - LOVE OF MY LIFE - HOW COULD I BE SUCH A FOOL? - I'M NOT SATISFIED - JELLY ROLL GUM DROP - ANYTHING.  

SIDE TWO OOZES OUT: LATER THAT NIGHT - YOU DIDN'T TRY TO CALL ME - FOUNTAIN OF LOVE - NO NO NO - ANYWAY THE WIND BLOWS - STUFF UP THE CRACKS.
