SUN 369   Bobby Wood
Everybody's searching / Human emotions (unreleased or withdrawn, October 1961)

 

 

 

A regular SUN release of this record has yet to surface. Apparently it was withdrawn from marketing
due to a contractual dispute. The A-side, Everybody's searchin', was released on at least two different
labels. The Pen label is the most interesting, because it has been produced at the same pressing plant as
SUN was using at the time, and has indeed 'Phillips' stamped in the vinyl trail-off. The GA Challenge promo and
commercial issues are from different stampers and has slightly different playing time. Further info is welcomed!
