Windlesoul Posted August 17, 2012 Posted August 17, 2012 (edited) Where's this garage band / label from originally? Any background info on this? Edited August 17, 2012 by mark w.
Pomonkey Posted August 17, 2012 Posted August 17, 2012 (edited) Not the greatest version have ever heard, just plods along tempo wise, try the Little Woo Woo version on Heat, that'll get you moving! Or plenty of others on this thread: Edited August 17, 2012 by pomonkey
Windlesoul Posted August 17, 2012 Author Posted August 17, 2012 (edited) Cheers, (and for the link, though cant find the Little Woo Woo version) - but back to my original question though, anybody know 'owt about the Torchmen in particular? Edited August 17, 2012 by mark w.
Tony Smith Posted August 17, 2012 Posted August 17, 2012 (edited) Isn't it from Detroit? From memory it's a Sound Inc. subsidiary label similar design to Sound (Gary Haines / Dave Hall style) Edited August 18, 2012 by Tony Smith
Guest carl_p Posted August 20, 2012 Posted August 20, 2012 Looks like it was part of the Houston, TX label "Dart" .....according to the global dog discography anyway. But, I see the similarity to the Detroit "Sound inc" label. Namely the stars but also possibly the music clef.
Steve G Posted August 20, 2012 Posted August 20, 2012 (edited) Probably just a rip off version of the Traits then. The Traits were from Houston and did Harlem Shuffle after they fell out with Roy Head. Edited August 20, 2012 by Steve G

It was over 20 years I saw the record so I may be mistaken, it didn't do much for me!

He must of had a distribution connection there or he moved there for a short time. i forget exactly. I know Gary Haines was definately from Detroit.
