Larry Saunders
Stranger (The Prophet Of Soul)
US SOUND OF SOUL LP No cover - £25 

Now this is confusing a 3rd label that this lp was issued on and possibly the first pressing. Doesn't come with a sleeve and I am pretty sure that is the way it was issued as I have found it on more than one occasion without sleeve. this time I found a bunch in some old warehouse stock so have made it a bargain price. Killer set from one of my favourite singers who's voice just oozes soul. DICKIE DIAMOND is credited as producer. On closer listening this sounds like an earlier mix/production. My guess is it was remixed for the later releases. So many good cuts Inc. FLY AWAY LOVE BIRD / STORY OF MY LOVE / WHERE DID PEACE GO / LOVE I HAVEN'T FOUND YOU YET and the remake of THIS WORLD (IS A BALL OF CONFUSION). Slightly different track listing to the other issues. This one doesn't have 'Darling I Love You' BUT 'Where Did Peace Go' has the same music but different lyrics.
