Jeff -- great photos! Brings back a lot of memories. I really remember that hotel, the Chuckwagon Buffet (across from the stage door), and the go-cart track. I remember that the floor was an uneven tile (like slate) and the inside doors were glass near the casino. The walkway was curved and went to the wings of the hotel and to the casino. I'm looking to see what else the family might have, but it might be a week before I have a chance to go through the old photo albums.

To follow up, my sister has a Jerry Sun 45 with 'Judy: First Lady of Gambling' as the A-side, and '21" T.V.' as the flipside. I'll borrow that the next time I see her and get a copy of that. I don't remember those songs offhand and I don't think they were part of the show (but I'd love to see the setlist from the Hacienda show). The one original that I remember is "Camp Winnemucca".

Thanks for all the great info Jack. I've got that Hacienda '45. I'll post a pic soon. It definitely has a Las Vegas sound but still interesting indeed.
I talked to Jerry and he definitely remembers you. I will pm you his contact info.
Records will be shipping soon. I'm waiting for lower numbers. All I got were high ones.
Cheers and Mahalo,
Jeff

I finally got down to the folks house and got our copy of this single, but I don't have a scanner here, so the best I can do are photos. You can probably upgrade the quality of these at some point. How cool is it that he remembers us all these years later? Thanks for letting me know!

Mahalo Jeff! My copy arrived. I'm downloading the digital tracks now, and I'll be spinning up the vinyl later tonight. From the photos to the cover to the red vinyl, this is one sharp looking release. I can't wait to actually _hear it_ now.

Jeff, mahalo for my Jerry Sun package. It arrived last week. Since I don't currently have vinyl play capability, I downloaded the digital album and have been looping through it all weekend on the iPod Touch connected to my Bose Wave music system. What a mellow, exotic sound! Highest accolades to you, tikicoma, Dionysus Records and, of course, to Jerry Sun himself for making this accessible to us latter day tikiphiles!
-Tom

Not surprisingly, the record sounds as great as it looks. It's gone into heavy rotation in the home bar.
Mahalo,
