The Sweet - Little Willy / Man From Mecca (Bell 1973...very catchy pop rock a-side)

PRESSING INFO: No idea!
I wish I knew something about this release. I've done everything but call the number thats listed on the label. I even wrote a letter but never got a response. I bought this in a box lot a few years ago at Norm's Auction. Most of the records were sold on eBay. But after taking a listen to this I decided to add it to my collection.
All I know is that this release was base out of Ardsley PA. So its a somewhat local release. The A-side is slower power pop ballad. The B-side is why I kept this release. Its upbeat and catchy! Reminds me of a more poppy dead milkmen. Or maybe I'm just crazy.
