Dave Thorley Posted March 23, 2016 Posted March 23, 2016 (edited) California Playboys - Trying to become a millionaire - Loadstone Mint-/Mint- SOLD Legendary LP that provided 2 dancefloor fillers at the Stafford allnighters in the early 80's 'Trying to become a millionaire' & 'Just say a four letter word'. In recent years it has risen to heady heights in popularity again. with the above tracks plus others from the LP filling dancefloors across Europe. The LP started life in 1976 W.C. Stone's San Francisco label. The group was formed by North Carolina's Julian Vaught who had recently come out to the west coast. Julian - Guitar & Sax, along with Kelvin Dixon - Drums, Robert Jacobs - Bass Guitar, Kenny Dunaway - Third Guitar & Trumpet, William Smith - Lead Singer and Julian - Guitar & Sax, formed a tight musical group. Sadly it seems they recorded nothing else. This copy is in great condition and at a nice price, has sold for as much as £700 in the past and there is a copy on the web now for over £600 now. Below are a few of the infectious tracks to be found on the LP, they first starts with that distinctive piano intro, that is like a clarion call to the dancefloor. The second starts with a rhythm guitar that has the same effect and that's just the start, four other great tracks included on the disc. Edited March 23, 2016 by Dave Thorley
