Classic 45s Highly Recommended Single

(C45s)You Can't Sit Down/ Wildwood Days by The Dovells
Label: Parkway 867 Year: 1963
Picture sleeve included: M-
Condition: M $50.00

The Dovells had two smash, neo-doo-wop hits in the early 1960s â€” this one, and "Bristol Stomp" from 1961. Both tunes are on the want list of every rock'n'roll fan who digs songs from the 1961-63 resurgence of doo-wop, and even some Northern Soul fans seek this one out for its sheer danceability. Sadly, despite their popularity, neither song is available on reissue, and it's not easy to find copies in this condition. Speaking of which, this looks like a brand new copy, whose only flaw is a light "shadow" printing on the B side. This single was released with three different B sides. The most common B side is "Stompin' Everywhere," which is worth a bit less than this one. Note: This beautiful copy comes in a nearly flawless copy of the single's dramatic picture sleeve â€” a real treat! (Note that the sleeve shows the B side as "Stompin'"; I don't know how many variations of the sleeve were printed.)
