"Blues Bouquet" / "Granny's Pad"

SERIAL#: B-736

DATE: 1963-01-22

MISC NOTES: Original Northwest release. The following month "Blues Bouquet" / "Granny's Pad" was issued nationally on Dot Records (45-16456) first under group name The VICEROYS and then, the VICEROYS FIVE because, nationally, another group named The Viceroys also had a record out at the same time ("Moasin' " / "Seagrams" Bethlehem #45 - 3045).

Note: around 1963/'64 the old roller rink located in Soap Lake, Washington hosted live music, rock 'n' roll dances under the auspices of being Granny's Pad.

1RA.) Monarch Records pressing #s: ^46392 / ^46392 - X (Jan. - Feb., 1963)

Note: Sea-Fair Bolo Records mistakenly issued two 45 rpm discs with the #736. Based on Monarch delta pressing numbers, this disc, by THE VICEROYS, was likely the second and should have been #737.
