I have a mastertape marked simply "Bobby Lester" which was found at the Fine Recording Studio, Rochester NY a few years ago. It consists of 2 great soul tracks, titles unknown, but possibly "Hey Girl" and "It's Your Turn (To Feel The Pain)". I'd be interested to know if these tapes have ever surfaced in any format over the years.

"Hey Girl" in particular grabs me, it's a stirring soul mover with touches of James Brown, has saxes, guitar, bass, drums, vocals and backing vox. A reissue could be in the works next year when I finally get the time, but in the meantime I'm curious because this track is stuck in my head and won't go away.

Does anyone have any interest, or info?
