3 Months Without Spending Money on eBay

I managed to go for three months without bidding on anything on eBay.  Until this 45 recently came up.  "That's How It Goes" is a catchy Tony Hatch song recorded by The Breakaways in 1964.  The Breakaways were a UK girl-group trio formed in 1962.  In addition to their own recordings, they did session work with many artists, including Petula Clark, Dusty Springfield, Cilla Black, Normie Rowe and Lulu.

I see the UK Pye original fairly often, but this is the first US release (on Cameo) that I'd seen.

James Brown Family Discography

Here's a link to a great resource.  It doesn't appear to have been updated recently, but it's a good collection of discography information.
