One of only around 8 45s released on what I believe must be a New Orleans label as many of the releases involved D.C. Wardell (an alias for Wardell Quezergue) and/or other NOLA musicians/writers e.g. The Barons, Allen Orange, Joseph Broussard (wrote Pointer Sisters Send Him Back with Richard Caiton), Ralph Williams, Charles (Chuck) Simmons, Carrol Washington etc.
There were several soul groups recording under The Jades name in the mid 60s e.g. on on Uni and an LA group on Capitol, Imperial, Liberty, and several other white rock/garage bands but I'm pretty certain that this is a different group to the one that that released the stomper I'm Where It's At on Nite Life who sound blue-eyed.
