NOT THE FIRST BUT DEFINITELY THE MOST POPULAR ROCK INSTRUMENTAL COMBO,
“THE VENTURES”  SCORED SEVERAL  HIT  SINGLES DURING THE 1960s   --   MOST NOTABLY
“WALK DON’T RUN”  AND  “HAWAII FIVE-O”  BUT  MADE  THEIR  NAME  IN  THE  GROWING
ALBUM   MARKET,   COVERING   HITS   OF   THE  DAY  AND  ORGANIZING   THEMATICALLY
LINKED  LPs.    ALMOST   40   VENTURES’ ALBUMS   CHARTED,    AND  17  HIT  THE  TOP  40.
AND  THOUGH  THE  GROUP’S  POPULARITY  IN  AMERICA  VIRTUALLY  DISAPPEARED  BY
THE   1970s,    THEIR    ENORMOUS   CONTRIBUTION  TO   POP   CULTURE  WAS   FAR   FROM
OVER ;  “THE VENTURES”   SOON  BECAME  ONE  OF  THE  MOST  POPULAR  WORLD-WIDE
GROUPS,  WITH   DOZENS   OF   ALBUMS   RECORDED   ESPECIALLY   FOR   THE   JAPANESE
AND   EUROPEAN   MARKETS...        THIS  IS  THEIR  FIRST  ALBUM,    ISSUED  IN  1960  ON  THE
“DOLTON”  LABEL,  STEREO  PRESSING  VERSION.  BARELY  PLAYED,   LABEL  DOES  HAVE
SMALL INITIALS ABOVE THE CENTER HOLE
