record is mint - Looks unplayed and sleeve I would grade vg+ no
splits in the sleeve but has a stiker in the upper right hand.
This is extremely rare with the sleeve and only released
to radio stations.they dont come up very often but I stumbled upon this one
and im sure someone out there is looking for this.Please ask if you have any
questions.
To all interested in Shamus McCool,This is what I was able to turn up on the internet.
Shamus M'Cool (aka Richard Doyle) was born in RI & grew up in Providence.He died of a heart attack in Jan.'90 at the age of 49.He's buried at Forest Lawn Mortuary in North Hollywood,Ca.next to Ricky Nelson(who was his close friend).He was a very popular stand up comic & headlined at clubs all over the country.He even performed for JFK at the Whitehouse.He was one of the most intelligent , funny & loving people you could ever meet.
The reason you can't find his music is that he released it under his own label,Perspective Records.When he passed away,so did distribution of his music.He released American Memories in the early 80's with the flip side being
American Humor,which was about 6 minutes of his stand-up comedy recorded at the Playboy club.American Memories went to the top 100.He also released a 45 with 2 Christmas songs,Santa's Little Helper Named Dingo and Lulabelle (Dingo's Girl friend)
As I have researched this more I see that this record in the last 5 years on ebay has only surfaced
On Sep-25-11 at 18:57:23 PDT, seller added the following information:1 time compared to 4 times for american memories.This is truely a rare piece and you probably wont find another if it even exsists.
