Among the most coveted finds at this year was this Numero Group release of The Chieftones. As a Canadian, it was a no-brainer...as an Indigenous Canadian, it was nearly mandatory to bring this home. Never knew of the group prior to picking this up and found the following on Wiki:

Formed in 1964, and originally billed as "Canada's All-Indian Band",the group released two singles on 20th Century Fox Records in 1975, reaching number 16 on Billboard Hot Country Songs, number 32 on Hot Adult Contemporary Tracks and number 92 on the Billboard Hot 100 with "What Time of Day", and number 37 on Billboard Hot Country Songs with "Pledging My Love". That same year, ThunderKloud was honored by the American Indian Exposition as the "Outstanding Indian of the Year". Billy and the Chieftones performed at President Nixon's second Inaugural Ball in 1973. ThunderKloud is a Kentucky Colonel commissioned by the Governor of Kentucky and was also named an honorary Shriner. After 20th Century Fox closed its record label, the band moved to Polydor Records, charting with "It's Alright" and covers of "Indian Reservation (The Lament of the Cherokee Reservation Indian)" and "Try a Little Tenderness". In 1976, Billy ThunderKloud was a recipient of an ASCAP Country Music Award for "Try a Little Tenderness".

The Shadows are always a fine choice for fans of the 6-string. Perfect for a Tuesday listening session.

It's surprising how few things break when you use your shoulder and face to absorb the impact....serves me right for stacking 3 flats of CD's and cassettes precariously on top of unstable bins. Glasses survived the blow, no scratches or bruising. Just my pride a bit hurt.
