ALBUMS FOR FEBRUARY, no. 7. Little Anthony & the Imperials, We Are the Imperials. To be honest, I bought this because the cover is so great and again, was trying to buy some cheap stuff to eliminate shipping costs while I was buying something else. The music is doo-woppy early sixties recorded for release on 45 records, so it sounds ~mmmmmmohhhhhhkay/actually-not-always-okay-tbh and I didn’t know a lot of them. But man, “Over the Rainbow” was beautiful, and this might be my favorite version of “When You Wish Upon a Star” (which has such a deviously heartbreaking melody—what an achievement, that melancholy, twisting stairway of a melody) that I know of. #littleanthony #littleanthonyandtheimperials #whenyouwishuponastar (at Noblesville, Indiana) https://www.instagram.com/p/CL0rJCwL71u/?igshid=1o4l2ln6aryf2
