Griffith, Smith, and Co. [197x]

Griffith is a guy and Smith is a girl fronting this local Florida lounge act from sometime in the '70s. Highlight is full 7:15 long version of "MacArthur Park" for those of you who collect obscure versions of the epic song. No they don't go for the last high note, they ineptly have trumpets try it. Other tracks include "Just The Way You Are", "Theme 'Rocky'", "Over The Rainbow" etc. Cool blue cover art of palm tree by buildings, autographed. Oh, the girl sings a 6:45 long version of "New York, New York" in an overdone wacko way that may appeal to 'golden throat' collectors of bad singers... [PM]
