Deadly, hip-hop-inflected, soundboy version of Skylarking. Nasty bass.

Ace, rampaging digi.

Moving, skilfully epistolary song-writing from inside the belly of Apartheid.
Killer rhythm, to boot.

OG had been a UK-resident for five years by the time of this Brenton Wood cover, recorded here during the Soul Vendors 1967 tour. (One night Jimi Hendrix was the support.) A Procul Harem on the flip.

OG breathing in and going deep with the Chain Smokers in 1976, for Clem Bushay.
Also featuring Trinity and Dillinger.
Rough, early-Pablo vibes. Terrific.

Juggernaut version of the Four Tops, with Ike Bennett at the organ leading Ilya Kuryakin on the flip.

A cover of the Gene Chandler.

Excellent, sombre version of The Temptations’ civil rights smash.
Same tune both sides.
