(C45s)Melissa/ Blue Sky by The Allman Brothers Band

Play mp3: Side A | Side B
Label: Capricorn 0007 Year: 1972
Condition: M $25.00

This two-sided wonder is hoarded by fathers, boyfriends, and husbands everywhere with a "Melissa" in their lives. Once given to a "Melissa," the gift rarely again sees the light of day... which explains why it's so hard to find by folks who just love the music! Because it also happens to be one of this Southern U.S. band's very best singles. This is a beautiful mint copy that looks unplayed. Note: "Blue Sky" is an edited version of the LP cut, and though it was intended to be the hit side, it was Melissa that got most of the airplay. Which unfortunately was very little considering how great these songs are.
