1967

CAN YOU FORGIVE ME * EARL HARRISON * SOULTOWN * [UK?]

Originally released on the tiny Garrison label # 3001, located in Detroit, Michigan - a label for which The Honey Bees also recorded - Garrison records did a deal with Wand to release their tracks this was given the catalogue number: 1134. The B side to the more popular Humphrey Stomp, Can You Forgive Me is a Soulful ballad which is lifted above the norm by the haunting vocal chorus from an unaccredited girl group, could it be The Honey Bees? The 'Soultown' issue above is a cheap bootleg, so cheap that the print is actually wearing off! Probably pressed in the UK to look American, it was never released on the Soultown label, but, surprisingly, was released in the UK on London HL 10121.
