Bobby Thurston's first album released on Mainline in 1978 is highly sought after on original as it sank without trace on release. It has been reissued twice in the UK in 1988 and 2001 due to demand from the modern soul scene.
He had a UK Top 10 hit with 'Check Out The Groove' in March 1980 (his only UK hit). The UK release had his version of Billy Stewart's 'Sittin' In The Park' on the flip whilst the US release had 'I Want Your Body'.

As a bonus I've included his first 45 on Mainline which got a national release on Avco.
