Back in the early to mid '80s a band out of Victoria BC released a 45rpm record with the linked song on the A side. It was titled (She's Got) Another Boyfriend.

I have long since lost the 45 but I had a taped copy which I've since digitized. Unfortunately I cannot remember the bands name and I want to be able to credit them when I try to do a cover. Can any of you help?

I have tried every online site I can find that will look up lyrics or titles and they were of no help. I guess the song was too obscure.

Anyway, thanks in advance.

Paul

Paul,

If you go to the PRO site for Canada

https://www.socan.ca/jsp/en/mem/pubRepertoireSearch.jsp

and do a search several authors and one publisher come up for the search term "Another Boyfriend".

Maybe it's one of them. smile

Thanks for the suggestion Josie. So far no luck. I'll keep trying of course, I really want to identify the band.

Check BMI and ASCAP?

If the band was in Victoria BC, maybe someone at PG Music headquarters would know?

Good luck.

That's it! Thank you very much Wyndham. They are both good songs but I like Another Boyfriend best. Now I know who did them, Yay!

Yep: Zipper. I heard them at an outdoor concert in Victoria's Beacon Hill park. They were really good so I bought the 45 right there. Thankfully I recorded it to cassette because I lost the 45 some time later.

heh, "zipper" - Everything old is new again.

To the tune of "Stormy Weather" - this bit of Americana was prolific at one time:

Wonder why,
there's no buttons on my fly;
there's a zipper--
Me and my gal think its quicker--


I guess rock 'n rollers were not the first to exploit the double entendre lyric after all...
