I took these pics of records from someone’s great collection at the MSP Music Expo in Minneapolis. I’m just now posting them! Of course I forgot the guy’s name who they belonged to, so if you see this send me an email so I can give you credit!

Tim and Pauline Smith
“Love Like Never Before”
Talent Power #3515
MAILBAG:
Hello,
While Googling some friends from long ago, Tim and Pauline Smith, the only hit was your web page with their album cover. In the 1980s, Tim and Pauline, who lived in Bonita Springs, Florida, used to play a yearly gig at a club in Titusville. They were very personable and quite good musicians, drawing a loyal crowd.
They literally invested their life savings to hire the best Nashville studio musicians they could afford for Love Like Never Before. It got some air in South Carolina, I understand, but not much elsewhere. They gave it their best shot, though. I bought the first copy, and they autographed the cover for me. I still have it.
Not long afterwards, the club burned, and Tim and Pauline didn’t come back to Titusville. They are good people; I wish them well.
–D.F.
