American Memories b/w American Humor
Perspective Records
If you're looking at this, then you know what it is, the rarest record to ever crack the Top 100. This was privately pressed by comedian Richard Doyle, aka, Shamus M'Cool. One side is comedy, but the music side "American Memories" is the one that made the Top 100. The rumor has it that Doyle only pressed 10 (!) copies and sent them to various DJ's, and somehow finessed it into the charts. I got mine in a collection from Boston (where Doyle was from, as his "Celtic Music" publishing company and accent will attest to) which was filled with radio promos. As less than 10 copies have turned up over the last 10 years, this may well be true. You can read more the record here: http://popdose.com/secret-single-shamus-mcool-american-memories/
The disc itself is shiny and in great shape, VG+, the label on the American Memories side has some markings on it. The record itself plays flawlessly.
Here are complete rips of both sides of the record, untouched, from my Technics 1200.
