I remember seeing those guys a couple of times. I also had their first album, very cool!

Okay, So all those years go by...brain gets a little fuzzy...not for the same reason as 'back in the day', mind you...and then it hits me... 'Strike a Match' was from Albion Doo-Wah. That was an Aces & Eights standard...played at any gig from a short opening set before a recorded act to a bar gig. If any of you Nuts have this and know how to post it to YouTube would post there is a Nut out here in SoCal who will buy some beers when I get the chance... 'In the first days of this country when the buffalos roamed the land, all the traps and cowboys used to roll their own by hand'...everybody sing along...'Strike a match and light another...'

Abilon Doo Wah should be released on cd...that is one great album

Found it on Amazon for $34, new...I just had to snatch it since I foolishly gave up the LPs several years ago!!
We are living in the future. I'll tell you how I know. I read it in the paper, 15 years ago.

are saying there is a CD version of Albion? And you have one? You are my hero? any chance you can post the audio of 'Strike a Match' on YouTube for me? Just want to hear that tune again...and if someone has the lyrics...that would be most appreciated as well!

I jumped at that as well and found Amazon only had two vinyls. However..... .....inasmuch as mine is a cutout and been opened and I have no turntable, I'll lend it to anyone who can put it on disc for those who might want a copy. That way, Bob doesn't have to open his copy and we all get happy. Anyone?

I actually just ordered it, thanks to this thread. I don't have yet, but soon. Having never posted on youtube, I'd be a complete novice but more than glad to give it my best. Maybe even better, I could just email it to ya?
