Another Record Store Day release, this one. a selection of six covers of doo wop songs by Patrick Kelleher. Doo wop’s brand of pop relies heavy on vocal harmonies and Patrick’s voice is one up to the task. The ghost in the title also comes from his ability to add some haunting atmospheres to songs.  The originals are by The Bop Chords, Jimmy “Handyman” Jones, Rosie and the Originals, The Teen Queens , Eddie Cochran’s classic ‘Summertime Blues’, Rosie and the Originals

It’ll be released on Saturday on 50 hand numbered cassettes through Long Lost Records from Elastic Witch and the Record Store Gay pop-up shop. Or you can buy it now from Bandcamp.
