Close Enough For New Year's

I don't have a whole lot of New Year's music to share with you, so this one will have to be close enough to count. Give it a listen and see if you think it's worth the trouble. This is The G-Clefs with I Understand (Just How You Feel) (Auld Lang Syne) (Terrace 7" 45 RPM 45-7500, Mono, 1961).

    I remember this one. It was a Top Ten hit and the Oldies stations would play the heck out of it (especially around New Years) in the 60s and very early 70s. Around the time Disco became a thing (73 or 74), they just stopped playing it entirely.

    Thanks, Ernie! Missed this one last Xmas season, but thrilled to find it now. I knew the G-Clefs; during the late 80s/early 90s my brothers were the rhythm section for the band as they played a variety of 'oldies/Doo Woo' shows in MA & NH. They were fun dudes, and still had the pipes in their later years, I'm happy to report. I remember one show where younger Doo Woo group The Charms suffered by comparison with the G-Clefs stage show and audience reaction, but were delighted to vocalize back stage with the group. Fond memories!
