Although the Routers had a huge Top Twenty hit with the title track to this long player, the music on the group's albums was recorded by a collection of studio musicians -- many of whom were concurrently members of Phil Spector and Brian Wilson's team of top shelf pop instrumentalists. With music publisher and guitarist Mike Gordon and producer Joe Saraceno behind the wheel, the Routers served up a number of LPs, of which Let's Go! with the Routers (1962) is the first. Undoubtedly, anyone who has ever attended a football, basketball or baseball game -- in particularly on an amateur level -- has experienced the incessant cheerleader anthem "Lets Go"." With its rhythmic hand claps and peppy vocalization of the title, it seemed to become the unofficial theme song of American sporting events in the early '60s, remaining as such for decades.

The Routers -- who in reality included the formidable talents of Hal Blaine (drums), Leon Russell (keyboards) and Tommy Tedesco (guitar) among others -- built upon the uniquely American trend of school spirit and the somewhat homogeneous sounds of pre British Invasion pop rock.

This album includes a dozen tracks ranging from cover versions of concurrently popular songs such as "Limbo Rock" -- which had become a signature tune for the Champs as well as Chubby Checker -- and Chris Montez's "Let's Dance". These complement the exceedingly quirky and zesty originals "Half Time" and "Pep Rally". While the melodies are notably different, the honkin' sax leads as well as the frenetically paced synchronic clappin' and finger-snappin' hearken back to a much simpler America. This is also true of the quaint and wonderfully generic ensemble vocal interjections featured prominently on the title track as well as "Bucket Seats"."

---------------------------------------------------

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT COMBINED SHIPPING ON ALL 12" VINYL / LPS / 12" EPS / 12" SINGLES - PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING CAREFULLY!!!!

We offer combined shipping on all LPs / 12" Vinyls: our shipping rates are listed above. HOWEVER shipping packages that weigh more than 2kg is VERY expensive. Therefore we can only offer combined shipping up to a maximum of SIX (6) LPs / 12" vinyls. Any extra purchases will be invoiced, packaged and shipped separately.

***Due to the physical logistics of how I can package orders, I will not combine box sets with other items, I will only package them individually***

---------------------------------------------------

COMBINED POSTAGE FOR DIFFERENT FORMATS will be invoiced at my discretion:

While I am happy to combine (for example) one or two 7” singles into one package with 12” records, sometimes it simply isn’t practical (like if you want me to combine one 12” record with three or more 7” records). I simply do not think that these combinations can be packaged together safely and securely. Therefore these will be invoiced separately as two packages.

IF YOU ARE UNSURE, please contact me before bidding!

---------------------------------------------------

Sorry but I am no longer willing to carry combined transactions beyond two weeks of auctions (see below).

---------------------------------------------------

PAYMENT

I would appreciate payment within seven days of the auction’s end. If you want to bid on more of my auctions ending a week later please inform me. I will wait and issue a combined invoice at the close of the second week’s auctions.

However, I am no longer willing to carry combined transactions beyond two weeks and in these cases would appreciate payment promptly after the close of the second week’s auctions.

I am sorry to have to introduce these measures – I always try to be patient and allow buyers to bid on extra auctions and / or delay payment. Unfortunately some buyers have been stretching out transactions to unacceptable lengths so I feel I have no option but to limit ‘carried over’ transactions to two weeks.
