Triple-L had a tendency to play punkish 45's like "I Need Love", and thus were a treat to listen to. Luckily, my copy is pristine. It was great to be reminded of the tune and it sounded teriffic when I played it!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11910289.post-1131747693952067012005-11-11T16:21:00.000-06:002005-11-11T16:21:00.000-06:00I have two copies of "I Need Love," both of which ...I have two copies of "I Need Love," both of which look cleaner than they sound.
