Ernie Bush - Breakaway


Recommended Posts


I'm sure it was just a new release on Contempo in about 74/75 that was being pushed by Blues & Soul. I never remember it being too big anywhere.

74/5, so maybe a Mecca track?

 

Just that I don't remember it from then but it perhaps was lost in the deluge of stuff being discovered/played at that time.

It got played almost everywhere l went back than.

In them days soul do's were 7 nights a week, not just weekend.

I have/had a live tape from The Cir All Nighter in Burnley (C120) and it is on there twice.

Side one Ginger playing it, side two Sam playing it.

First time I heard it would have been at The Ebor Suite in York - so most likely played by Alan Rhodes. But agreed, it was played all over Yorkshire (at least) to my knowledge - maybe not for a long time though. I'd say it got dropped as soon as the Contempo release came out, which was when I bought my copy.

The US Contempo / Scepter 45 must have come out a short while after that but it was many years later before I came across a copy.
