- Cosby, Bill-Super Special For Radio- LP- Stereo-Motown PR110 - 1982 release, white label promo-only Radio DJ LP featuring material from Bill Cosby's album & movie, "Himself." What distinquishes this promo LP from the movie and record is the fact that here bits and segemnts are available in multiple lengths. Side 1 features "cut-ups" (a special 15 minute radio show) and "short shorts" (selected tracks edited for radio), and side 2, "short cuts," a collection of short routines. See image below for complete track list. Cover looks great, showing only very minor wear. Vinyl is Mint! Cool Cosby promo item!

- Fools-Psycho Chicken (Clucked/Beeped)- 45- Stereo-EMI SPRO-9330 - 1980 release, promo-only gold vinyl 7" features the goofy single, "Psycho Chicken," by the Clown Princes of Boston Rock, The Fools, who had an FM hit with their song, "Life Sucks and Then You Die". This tune, a minor hit and regional classic, is a parody of the Talking Heads tune, "Psycho Killer," but in this case it is a chicken that is on the lam! Lots of cluck-humor here. Side A is the "Clucked" version, where clucking noises are used to cover the cuss words, while Side B, the "Beeped" version, uses the more conventional beeping sound. In any case, Side A gives you more cluck for your buck. Comes in original EMI stock sleeve. Vinyl is NM & plays clean! What the cluck-why not invest in this poultry-inspired comedic classic?

Cover is perfect inside shrink, and disc within is, of course, MINT and unplayed. Rare African-American party record.
