Holly, I too retrieved the "The First Family" album, and I played it for the first time in probably more than 30 years. I was a college sophomore when it was recorded in October 1962, so listening to "JFK" was a nostalgic return to my youth. The price sticker is still on the back of the album and it shows $3.07, which would be $15-20 at today's prices. And it's the cheaper monaural version -- the stereo version of albums was about a dollar more as I recall. One of the spoofs on the album had JFK pulling his 70-car motorcade into a gas station for fill-ups and he asked the attendant if they gave green stamps (referring to S&H Green Trading Stamps). I had forgotten about that marketing gadget -- I remember that my mother would buy groceries on Tuesday because it was double-stamp day. Well, enough reminiscing.
