John Bryant - I bring the Sun

The most obscure release by this prolific song writer, on the MCA label, released 17th May 1968, and as far as I can see, uncatalogued.

'I bring the Sun' will not disappoint. In the same box are all of his other releases during the 1960s, which I might put up later.

THE OWL- Run to the Sun

The only release by this obscure band, who were born out of 'Our Plastic Dream'. Vocalist 'Vincent Edwards' released several solo singles in the late sixties, including 'Run to the Sun' on the CBS label.


This release, a demo on United Artists released 18th October 1968, complete with press release snippet.

Timebox

A splendid band that was once very popular on the British club scene, and which cut a few eccentric tracks, notably 'Gone is the sad man' and 'Baked jam roll in your eye'. This track is a more upbeat pop number, but still has that certain sound unique to the late sixties England.

Girl don't make me wait:-

'SelppiN' by DAVID...Hammond discoteque...

Not an awful lot to say about this little gem, except a splendid play on words. Typical of the era...1969-70.

David had one other release as far as I am aware on Philips, 'Light of your Mind'.

DARWIN'S THEORY, 1966

On the Major Minor label, a rare British beat gem.

The MAZE, 1967, , as promised for WD...

Typical late sixties sound, not at all like Deep Purple. This is a delightful MGM demonstration copy.

The CARNABY 1965

Their only single, 'Jump & Dance' (this group owned boutiques in Carnaby Street) ,did not chart but is now renowned as a classic composition of its era. A signed copy...



I was kindly sent a link to another blog featuring the Carnaby, which contains some stunning photographs of the band circa 1965.
