I thoroughly enjoy the album "The Two Tones at The Village Corner"... listen to it quite often.
I occasionally relax to Copper Kettle and Dark as a Dungeon...same true for Remember Me and It's Too Late but the backup vox make me cringe, the same way Orbison arrangements would back around the same era...I wonder when producers finally realized that stuff was kinda goofy

PBro, looks like those tracks gathered dust for a while before release

there is a live (but it could be memorex?) video of GL singing Remember Me at the start of the Live Radio TV thread
