It's the flip of Dusty Greyrock that's the winner, a moody guitar jangler.Natural Gas is cool organ-heavy psych with harmony vocals and a beat.^Hot Wax raer. This is a strange album, with no artist credits. I swear thereis more than one group on here, one of which sounds alot like Flaming Ember,another Hot Wax act - anyone else have this and notice the same thing?I'm in love with the chick with twenty-five cents on her head. She looks so tough.That whole tough-chick look is gone on the back cover though:^Pretty awesome private country rock thing, with a cover of Gram Parsons'"In My Hour of Darkness," another Parsons song worked into a medley, anda very pretty spirtual song with the highly stalker-esque title "Jesus,Gram and Me"[/b](!!!) ... best song is a weird soft-psych track with vibraphonecalled "Scottie"Dollar-bin exploito covers record with a version of "Scorpio"Take a sip of the break:

The cute female on this cover makes me want to do some stone "carryin' on" myself.
Don't have it, but isn't the group name supposed to be Satisfaction Guaranteed?
Yes, but when I say no artist credits, I mean that's it,
it just says the group name and the producer name, no credit
to singers or musicians - and if you listen to the album straight
through, there are sweet soul songs with some distinctive vocalists,
and then there are songs that sound completely different, and as I said
sound very much to my ears like Flaming Ember. Makes me wonder if they
only had a handful of songs by "Satisfaction Unlimited" and filled out
the rest of the album with Flaming Ember outtakes or something ... ?
Is that an asian hippy she's conversing with?
Are there any cover tunes on the album?
When I looked back at 2007 and realised I had about two decent finds for the year, I thought I'd get '08 started on the good foot.
RONNIE,NORMAN AND EARL "SOUL AT SUNRISE" 45
No, they are all credited to some combination of the
producer, arranger and an M. Jones.
the artwork on that is pretty cool
That was a very common practice with vocal group LP's in the 70's, not listing the individual members' names, so that doesn't shock me.
But swell-looking bonitas don't like to Boogaloo or Shingaling. At best he's looking at a sympathy Cha Cha Cha.
I've been looking for that and other QMO records for a while... apart from some 73 & 76 no joy in NYC. I bet Karlophone has quantity.
Yes! I told you before you need to go to Amsterdam and get a hooker already.
Here are a few recent pieces
That Caroline Peyton was much better than I thought it was going to be. The Bruton LP is the Brian Bennett Album that later was released as "Voyage" (thanks Pencilface). That Tommy Jones "Bow Legs" is a double, so hollarate if you need it.
Grabbed that Jackie and Roy after hearing good things about it on Waxidermy. Paul Owens and the Capitol Star City Singers is a really great gospel album that should get way more shine.
Yma Sumac psych album is a Frickin' mind melter. got a sealed copy and popped it open as son as I got near a turntable.
Grabbed that Joe Simon on the strength of Pickwick's knowledge drop. All the tracks are pre LP 45s from the early to mid 60's. Bobby Bland's "Spotlighting the Man" is another one of those albums I passed countless times for no reason at all, I'm glad I finally took a chance.
and a big thank you to Las Vegas' own John Doe (AKA Doeizm) for hooking it up with this
wow...i spoke to friend of mine few weeks back, he told me that he had just found a scorpio version on a 70s US comp in a $bin, pretty sure this has to be it, not too many other comps lps include scorpio
also, speaking of scorpio versions:

although i've had that QMO record for quite some time at this point, i think a few dudes on here still have it as one of their "secret squirrel"s...
ANYWAY, i went digging with my dad, while he came out with about $55 of fairly common records, all i got was a minty copy of this, after YEARS of passing on it:

i love that cover and you cant go wrong for a buck...

That's really cool. My dad only likes to dig for books, so our fingers never get dusty together.
Right, I realize that, so it didn't phase me either ... until
I started to think there were recordings by more than one group
on there. When I get home tonight I'll listen again and maybe throw
up a couple of sound files for people to hear what I mean.
Green "S/T' on Atco
Marvels UK Press on Dimples label
Prince Teddy on AVI
Barbara Mason "Lady Love" on Buddah
You would not have gone wrong for a few bucks. This record is great.
love that album. "let's change the subject" is a bad ass tune. i would say that the two sides of the record sound a little different from each other, but i don't really hear flaming ember.
Rare, obscure, whatever. I'll buy one for $5 and you can put the other on Gemm for $30
LP? "Rock Steady" on there?
?! haha... sadly, no.
my quantity is usually on really goofy shit like Evel Knievel etc (see upcoming super bargain set sale blowout! whoo!)
LP yes....Rock Steady no
