Blue Wood Jet Set 45 Turn Around

Blue Wood

Blue Wood Jet Set 45 Turn AroundBlue Wood has the third release on the Jet Set label of Santa Barbara, California, though this time the label features a detailed logo. I don’t know anything about the group yet.

The A-side has a somewhat rural psychedelic sound (harmonies and no fuzz) on “Turn Around” by Rich Geiger. The flip is a hokey country-rock song, “Happy Jack Mine” by Ralph C. Multon and Lance Rose. Both songs published through Jet Set Publishing ASCAP, as were all the other original songs on the Jet Set label.

Produced by Tom Lubin, with Doug McGuire, the owner of the label, listed as executive producer.

As far as I can tell there were four releases on Jet Set:

JSR-45-2: Planned Obsolescense – “Exit Sticky Icky” / “Still in Love With You Baby” (Sept. 1967)
JSR-45-3: The Calliope – “I’ll Take It Back” / “Ryan 5” (eng. by Frank Kajmar, February 1968)
JSR-45-4: Blue Wood – “Turn Around” / “Happy Jack Mine” (1968)
JSR-45-5: Don Robertson – “Yesterday’s Rain” / “California”. Executive Producer Doug McGuire, Produced by Tom Lubin

Don Robertson also had the only album on Jet Set, titled Yesterday’s Rain.

Jet Set was located at 4296-A Modoc Road, Santa Barbara.

For more on Planned Obsolescense, see the post I wrote last year.

This is not the same Jet Set label that released singles by Jimmy Armstrong, Barbara Long, Jimmy Castor, Eldrige Holmes and others.
