Dave Thorley Posted May 23, 2010 Posted May 23, 2010 with the current interest in High Voltage and World Column, why not 8th Ave Band. Played it out a few time lately and each time to happy smile faces of peeps remembering back in the day, and it got a full dance floor. Love it still, funky, infectious, madness. Dave

Dave Thorley Posted May 27, 2010 Author Posted May 27, 2010 I think as it was a Columbia release, that there were enough copies around to meet demand back then, plus back in the day, people were a little more wary of pressing major label things, as they would come after you.

Yes but they officially pressed every Columbia/Epic biggie (Poppies, Edwards, Randell, French Fries, Blackwell, Valery, Vibrations etc) but missed this one for some reason - like you say, probably too common.

Ah yes Columbia Special Products, I wonder who it was that was advising them at the time.
