The only Four Winds 45 i have = Four Winds 45 - 1008 Big Bill Schaeffer - I Hate, But I Like Popcorn. A 50's sounding Rocker but may be 80's or another label ? Label states Pub Noa-How Music

Different numerical series, different musical style, completely unknown publishing, so likely not the same label. Wooten's Pretty Girl Publ. was still active back then, so I guess this would have appeared on the label.
