Lucky was from LA. He was working well in to the 80s as a vocal arranger for Zane Grey and some of the Orpheus producers. INWYS shouldn't be too hard to turn up: it was once around in massive quantity as a relatively new release. I agree it sounds pretty good now and would be relatively unknown to a whole generation of soul fans who have not necessarily been into modern soul for twenty years. I believe Sam is playing an unreleased track form the same kind of time frame as Love Is Better and Vacate... I haven't heard it but those who have claim it's good.

BTW, Candy Bowman released a passable version of LIBTE produced by Grey & Hanks, retitled Since I Found You on RCA in about '82. Contrary to popular belief, it was issued on 7" vinyl in the US.

INWYS came out on two labels I believe, I have an orange one and paid £10 for it, I think the other colour goes for a little more for some reason but still a £20 tops record, I like it

Sorry if this ended up in the wrong section...

I wonder if this thread had any influence on this

ebay

Been in contact with Lotusland already. Their price is in accordance with what the one on ebay went for. Guess this is no longer a £20 tops record...

oh yes,

sorry about it not being $35 usd. but i never saw that price. i had it listed in i believe tim brown's book at $75 and that is what i've been flipping it for. and flip it has. i only have one or two copies left, a whole stack of these has been devoured in just months at that price.

let me know if you come 'round.

peace,
