Hey!
Have been looking for the solo album from Maine Man guitarist Troy Vernfle. Do you by chance have it? It's called "The Captain Wore An Eye Patch." I will only purchase a copy on navy blue vinyl

: Wow! Your post brought back some great memories!
: I have a stack of old vinyl sitting in my shed. I was quite the collector you might say.
: I have:
: The Ensigns - Come and Take A Ride In My Boat AND their follow up - Smooth Sailing Into My Heart
: The Tillermen - ALL THEIR STUFF - MY FAVORITE GROUP!!!! Steve the Bass player was so cool. I met him once after a show.
: The What - Magic Tugboat b/w Sizzle Bubble (this is one of the rare first pressing of only 250!)
: Do you have any - Thee Jolly Rogers?
: I have both their long players:
: Sailin' the Seas with The Jolly Rogers
: Desert Isle - Music for Lovers
: I'm not sure I'd want to send this stuff to you though. It's real valuable and all.
: Will

We're currently putting together "Shades Of The Sixties, Vol. 13: Crabcakes & Cymbal Crashes -- The Western Maine Scene" and trying to find all of the rompin', stompin' Western Maine sides we can. We've already got some fab nuggets like:
: : The Trawlermen - Mulletskinner Blues
: : Cap'n Barnacle & The Peglegs - Walk The Plank
: : The Marsh Monsters - Rev It Up Marlin V8
: : But we want more, more, more! We're especially keen to find the following sides:

: : The Ensigns - Come and Take A Ride In My Boat
: : Sally Stacht & The Fatal Femmes - Daydream At Midnight

: : Or mail your carefully packaged relics to:
: : Shades Of The Sixties Records
: : P.O. Box 1385
: : Oxnard, CA 93030-1385
: : attn: Vol. 13
: : We PROMISE that you will get them back promptly, receive a credit in the liners and a free copy of the CD upon release.
: : We'd also love to get in touch with any members of 60s Western Maine bands to interview for the liners -- set to be authored by our own inimitable Chester Best, the man who's listened to so much wax, it's coming out of his ears. We'd also like to be sure they receive their due royalties, of course!
: : Thanks very much for your help, and please watch for the release in the third quarter of 2001.
