Great studio singles

I don't really know how these records come about but I'm presuming it's odds and sods studio time left over to bash out a project. Often instrumental, slightly weird 45s result. I love buying these records. Can we make a list of them here? I will start with VivaChiba's recent find and probably one of the most sought after of the lot.

It seems to be early 60s through to late 70s with a preponderance of glam.

I can only think of this, a cool JBs type thing which was the first studio project from Mojo according to 45cat.

You may have mentioned that one before Sir Slim? It was in my wants list on Discogs. In any case there was a copy for the friendly sum of $2.27 on eBay, so it's now mine.

I will give the nod to this VG+ favourite, which was released across Europe(??)... 'Come in Bonzo' by Big Cherry:

It think it was Xann who first alerted VGplus to the wonderfulness of Gliss Anders...

The aptly named "Dromedar named Itzenplitz" was also released as a Popcorn B-Side as Ecco. https://www.discogs.com/Jam-Popcorn/release/4079499

Bernard Estardy made a career of weird studio pop singles...

Les spectacularly here is a one off studio glam frippery that I have just found on my shelf (which really isn't 'great')

I got this of our very own Rich Hero a good while ago. Some library dudes doing music for friendly breakdance competitions (fast).

Here we go. Straight from a production team hiding behind a silly name. A fuzzy studio jam that sounds great—

Cat's Eyes by Life (aka Peter Shelley of Alvin Stardust fame). Late northern soul hit.
