1. Now that you've removed that impaction...
...I'm sure the bowels of your LP collection are feeling much better.

5. You're lucky if you don't recall the group!
The DeFranco Family came from Canada and placed three songs in the U.S. pop top forty:

HEARTBEAT--IT'S A LOVE BEAT (#3, 1973)
ABRA-CA-DABRA (#32, 1973)
SAVE THE LAST DANCE FOR ME (#18, 1974)

After which, they faded into well-deserved obscurity! But they do, of course, have a website now:

6. Movies
I'm wondering how many folks remember the "Soylent Green" in your reference? Been a while. Dr Who, too?

7. speaking of bowels...
what exactly is that in the bottom center of the album cover? It looks like the impaction resolved itself on dude's shirt.

8. It's a tiger. The LP jacket was too big for my scanner, so...
...you can't see the bottom half of Tony DeFranco's shirt.

9. As someone who recently suffered from a Bowel Infection
I might suggestion some serious antibiotics before the condition gets any worse

10. Correction on the website address
It's http://www.defranco.com

Check out this unbelievable excerpt from the site's Biography page:

"A lot has changed since 1973, when the DeFranco Family crossed the U.S. border from Canada, bringing with them their undeniable talent and an indelible R&B style, and putting a new face on pop music."

Undeniable talent? :puke:
An indelible R&B style? :grr:
Putting a new face on pop music? :wtf:

The personal websites of long-forgotten midget talents are exercises in exaggeration (and outright lying)! :eyes:
