You'd think one of these songs would have been a "slam dunk" hit, but no. Off the court, Wilt Chamberlain tried his hand at the music business with a group called The Aliens, who recorded on the "Stilt" label (the 45 label shows a drawing of Wilt's legs). Along with the 45 is a one-of-a-kind four-song acetate, or one-sided album, with four songs by The Aliens. Also included is an advertising handbill for the group, with Wilt's signature as label president, plus a Sheraton Hotel menu on the back of which are handwritten lyrics for a song entitled "Wilt," signed by the writer.
