picture of the A-side here: [[edit: indirect link removed]] don’t know where I found it, it’s not great
Thanks for the info. Didn’t find an Excel 106 label. Did find a UK seller listing as Te-e-e-ex-as but the item had been removed so there was no view. Can you confirm the dashes in Te-e-e-ex-as?
Bachelors (Connecticut) and Bachelors (MGM group) are the same group.
There is a distinct style change between the National & MGM releases.
