Man O Man (What Can I Do)/ Life Of Tears

Originally released on La-Cindy records (unknown catalog number). So little is known about this group and this release that it's not listed in any of the reference books I'm aware of. However, we know that someone's got a copy, cause the U.K. northern soul DJ's have been playing both sides of this rare item to death in recent years, especially the "Man O Man" side, which Kev Roberts puts at #73 in his latest top 100 list. And someone's got the master, which is how this limited edition Soul City reissue (U.K. release, small hole) came to be. Definitely worth checking out if you like your soul raw and rare. (Note: Audio on the B side is somewhat noisy in spots, perhaps reflecting a poor master copy, though the A side audio is pristine.) The year of issue is unknown.
