Lost masters related to Columbus, Ohios mysterious Prix label, an imprint already being considered for its slot among The
Numero Groups flagship Eccentric Soul series. But completely
out of left field, was heard from respected screen actor and avowed Numero fan Ryan Gosling that Pennys piercing bit of stripped down doo-wop was being considered for inclusion in Derek Cianfrances indieweeper film Blue Valentine. What we didnt know was that "You and Me" had been given a major role in what became a minor hit on the indie circuit, and that Penny
& the Quarters would acquire instant status as the worlds most famous unknown doo-wop group. "You and Me" is a song that could not be suppressed: not when Prix failed to release it; not when Penny & the Quarters were forgotten; not when Numero stuck it at the bitter end of a much overlooked compilation. Its evolution from estate sale trash to movie screen gold has finally returned it to big-hole 45, where it probably should have lived all along.
