Paul R Posted July 25, 2005 Share Posted July 25, 2005 Following on from Genes thread about the Sounds Superb albums. What about other 60s and 70s albums with US rarities on them. I remember getting a copy of Funky Bottom Congregation when Herb Ward was big. Also I forgot the title but I have another RCA album with Willie Kendricks Change your ways. Wasn't Mamie Galore "No Right To Cry" on one as well. Paul Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Could be wrong here but think it was on Manhatten label ? Will have a check tonight Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

I thought Change Your Ways was on Funky Bottom Congregation but if it's not then it's on Just A Little Bit Of Soul. Blowing Up My Mind is on one of those two, as well as the aforementioned Herb Ward atrocity - in my all time top 5 worst records that one. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
