THE JIVES- I Want You (Tear Drop 3267)
I stomped the Jives excellent slowie "Sad Girl" last March (see HERE). "I Want You" b/w "Forever" was this El Paso family's first 45 rpm release on Foy Lee's Tear Drop imprint. From 1968, the horns are way in the front, pushing all studio meters well into the red.
Just two years ago this was a scarce disc, trading hands in the $150 to $200 range. A few recent quantity finds have put dozens and dozens of copies on the market and the price has dropped significantly. Twelve bucks should get you a copy.
