Kyu Sakamoto's Sukiyaki & The Golden Gate Strings' Monkees Songbook

I'm on a once-a-week posting schedule because I don't really have that much stuff to spread around right now and this week's a real thrill, it's just stuff I have cluttering up my Rapidshare account.
My vinyl, my covers.
Kyu Sakamoto was the first Japanese artist to have a hit in the U.S. and was a big deal back when, there's like a million entries when you Google him, so knock yourself out...
"Sukiyaki", don'tcha know?...


This lp's main claim to fame is that the version of "(I'm Not Your) Steppin' Stone" that appears on it also can be heard in the cult film Lovedoll Superstar. It really is pretty cool, as is the film...
So what'll it be next time, lucha libre or scantily-clad wimmen?...
