The Producers or the Producers?

Instead of sleeping I'm converting more vinyl to digital. The newest album to get the treatment is The Producers debut album. For those who don't remember this maybe two hit wonder the group came out in the early 80s. Their first album was issued in 1981. They had two hit singles off the album "What's He Got?" and "What She Does to Me" plus some play on the single "I Love Lucy." They were one of those pop groups that come and go with a few good songs.

I actually saw this group in concert years ago, probably not long after the release of their first album. I saw them on the riverboat when it was still docked in New Orleans and they would have concerts on it. They put on a really good show, with a lot of energy and fun.

As the songs transfer from the album to I Tunes it pulls up the covers to the albums if the album is in I Tunes database. (For example the Beatles have not released any of their music to any online service yet, and it does not pull up any artwork for their album covers.) The Producers album cover is this:






What it pulled up was this cover:

They were never a very big group. They got a little MTV play and their single got some radio play but they were pretty much a one hit wonder. Still they were a fun band.
