Nothing can adequately describe that feeling of satisfaction, relief and happiness when you finally hold in your hand that one item you've been searching for ages. In this case, twenty five years! I got to know 'Masked moods' thanks to this video, which appeared regularly on the Music Box TV channel.I loved this song, but I could never find the single, despite looking for it intensively ever since 1984, when it was released. I did find the album 'Bees Knees & Chicken Elbows' (1984), which contains a different version of the track. But I was obviously after the single version. Last week, I finally spotted a copy on the Vinyl Tap website. I bought it, and today I could finally hold it in my hands. A long quest has finally come to an end.
My collection: 7" single no. 3760
Found: Vinyl Tap website, received May 29, 2009
Cost: 7 euro
Tracks: 'Masked moods' / 'Samba no pé'
I just bought the Bees Knees album for a couple of bucks. Strangely enough, the antique store I visited in Pensacola last week had several Blue Rondo items, obviously collected by a fan. They had several maxi-singles that I recall.
