Soul
Side 1. Love Under The Apple Tree Side 2. Fool-ology
As with many of Super Disco Edits recent releases, "Love Under The Apple Tree" was never released when Bill Brown and the Soul Injection recorded it way back in 1971. While the track was later re-recorded with a different vocalist and backing band, this is the first time soul and funk heads have been able to purchase Brown and company's arguably superior original take. Interestingly, it was recorded at a high-profile Hollywood studio and you can tell. Brown's lead vocal, the female backing singers and the assembled players - drums, bass, glistening guitars and hazy horns - all sparkle thanks to a genuinely high quality production. This isn't quite the case with the spacey and bustling flipside "Fool-ology", which sounds like (an albeit high quality) demo recording.
