This LP is the perfect combination of Crossover and Modern soul filled with strong
black male group harmonies and funky instrumentation, a recording to savor the
palette of soul and funk collectors across the board. This release isnÆt just about
the vocalists but also the variety of talented musicians and unique instrumentation
involved in creating this timeless testament to West Coast African-American
consciousness of the late 70s and early 80s.
One of our key initiatives at Jazzman Records is setting the facts straight, righting
the wrongs of mistaken identities and often giving previously unknown artists credit
where credit is well overdue. In this case, our main topic of discussion is The
Topics and their ôWanted Live! By A Million Girlsö LP. The funky soul archaeologists
here at Jazzman are extremely proud to announce this forthcoming release in our Soul
Spectrum? Series. WeÆve invested all our fine tuned resources into making this LP
reissue even better than the original. All 8 tracks have been digitally remastered
while all of the original LP cover art has been reproduced as an exact replica of the
original LP issued in the early 1980s. You may try your hand at obtaining an off
condition copy in the 1,000GBP price range or file our brilliant limited edition
reissue with a bonus extensive liner notes insert in your collection for only a
fraction of the price.
As group harmony and soul groups go, in many cases, there are some very popular group
names, popular to the point of redundancy. Often the same name was used by
different, multiple groups all around the country, round about the same time,
coincidentally unbeknownst to one another. While the artists didnÆt intend to be any
less unique than others sharing the same name, this duplicity has caused quite a bit
of debate and confusion for record collectors over the years. The mystery of this
rather ambiguously designed Modern Soul LP has haunted collectors for decades. Now
for the first time ever, we can finally confirm that this specific West Coast group
is (from Fresno, CA and) only recorded on the Token and NCS labels and is not to be
confused with any other groups of the same name who recorded on the Heavy-Duty,
Dream, TSG, Noodle, Carnival, Chadwick, Mercury, Castle and Brother III labels.
