Star Time #234: Stick 'Em Up
Highlights of this shimmering collection of audiophonic foil of the R&B persuasion include a group I misidentified on mic as "Sag War Hare," a response to Mary Wells, the shingaling, horticulture, the legal definition of L-U-V, liars, and the coolest English teacher who ever existed in Rochester, New York.
