"Brighter Tomorrow" / "Ca' - Ba' - Dab"

MISC NOTES:

COLLECTOR'S NOTE:
In 2010 Seattle's Light In The Attic Records released a boxed set of ten reproduction NW 45s under the name Wheedle's Groove. Topaz T - 1315 was one of the Wheedle's Groove reproductions. Although pressed on heavier wax, to the naked eye the repro looks exactly like the original. However, the dead (runout) wax information is different. Please see below.
