They seemed to hit their stride with the second release "Famous, Rich &
Beautiful" which charted two Top40s in Canada -- "I Am The Man" and "Hurts
To Love You"...and some decent airplay on the remake of "Cry".
I guess my attraction to these guys is that they managed to break
commercially with a soul base that is pretty untypical of what comes out of
Canada. Don't get me wrong, lotsa soul acts here, just none of them catch a
break at the major level.
Currently, I recommend a three-piece from St. Catharines called The LMT
Connection on The Label Group/United One. Some phenomenal funk, soul and
blues all sewn together into a neat driving package. They're touring Europe
in the next months...catch 'em if you can.
