Thanks to a collaboration with Montreal based Afrokats Records, we present for
the first time on vinyl 2 crossover soul undiscovered gems from Floyd Lawson and
the Hearts of Stone. These two tracks were recorded in 1975 for the second LP
from the Hearts of Stone and are possibly the best funk & soul tracks ever
recorded in Quebec. On the a side 'K Gee', a storming funk cover from the Nite
Liters; on the flip side crossover soul beauty 'It Only Takes A Minute Girl',
popularised by Take That in the mid 90s. Floyd Lawson and the Heart of Stone
were originally from Philadelfia but moved to Canada in the early 70s. The album
'Coming Out' remained un-released and was mainly used as a promotional tool,
helping to land gigs within local and international tour circuits. The few LPs
pressed by Floyd Lawson at the time are now very indemand by soul collectors and
changes hands for vast sums of money.
