Yes, the Stompers played many times at my college (Brandeis). I've got that 
album on Boardwalk, which featured a song that seemed to be a regional hit 
at the time: "Never Tell an Angel when Your Heart's on Fire," which kind of 
reminded me of Jackie Wilson's "Higher and Higher."  In fact this album was 
produced by the Ritchie Cordell, who died recently and wrote all those great 
Tommy James songs, etc. Good to hear Sal Baglio's still at it.
