So much great feedback from last week's "All Originals" show that I just HAD to go for a sequel.  This is Part II of an entire show devoted to original versions of songs that would later become hits (usually for somebody else).  Glad you enjoyed it!
I'll be back to my usual Orphanage of Rock and Roll show on Thursday evening July 8th at 6pm. Have a great 4th of July!

The Orphanage of Rock and Roll has been a home for homeless rock and pop records on 91.3 WVKR in Poughkeepsie, NY since 1995. ---- Join rock historian Pete Clark as he uncovers the deep tracks that fell between the cracks in the top-secret back room of the W-V-K-aRchives. ---- Footnotes in the history of rock and roll, along with vaguely familiar tracks you thought you’d never hear on the radio again.
