It's starting to feel a little bit as if the hobby is against the collectors these days??? Talk about biting the hand that feeds you?

I never even had a third rate romance with the rhythm aces, but was always drawn toward Clarence “Frogman” Henry. I don’t know why I love him, but I do.

I'm usually pretty good on late 50's through 70 bands and singers. I remember very well Third Rate Romance but didn't know of Amazing Rhythm Aces. I see they are from Memphis. I'll ask my softball teammates from Memphis if they are still around.

If I nickle and dimed customers paying 5 and six figures I would be out of business. Poor business practice by the auction houses.

There were so many terrible songs in the 70s it would be hard to rank them. This one is up there for sure. Although it can't top Feelings or You Light Up My Life.

The “hobby” is all about money these days. Collectors are an afterthought.
