“Natasha” / “Mod Threads” (Romain WD 1009) May 1967
My latest Honorary Knyghtes Of Jangle are Coatesville, PA group, The Glas Managerie.
Stand up and applaud their outstanding beat jangler “Natasha” on the tiny local label, Romain Records.
The label was also responsible for releases by other notable acts.
These were The Bounty Hunters and The One Way Street.
Glas Managerie – Natasha
“Natasha” was compiled on ‘Crude PA – Volume Two’ back in the mid-nineties but there is no information on the back cover liners about The Glas Managerie.
The only clue is the fact that both sides of their Romain label 45 were laid-down at Virtue recording studio in PA.
The other side of the single “Mod Threads” is a fast-paced instrumental.
This can be found on ‘Off The Wall – Volume 2’.
A faithful version of “Natasha” was released by The Embrooks in 1998 on their four song EP “Don’t Ask For More”.
I have used scanned images of model Angela Dorian a.k.a. Victoria Vetri, in my YouTube video. She appeared in Playboy magazine – September 1967, just a few months after the release of The Glas Managerie single.
