Project Soul [197?] - Ebony / Sweet Things Of Life [USR-4174]

Now here's a rarity and price reflects that with none available on Discogs and the last one selling for £535 in Feb 2020.  

Project Soul were formed in 1969 and later named themselves Con Funk Shun in 1971 (after the Nite-Liters track of that name) and signed to Mercury in 1976 who they released a total of 11 albums with until they disbanded in 1986.  

This is the only 45 I can find from Project Soul.  I'm not sure if they released any other material, but this is a great double-sider. There's no date on it but must be some time between 1969-1971 and I'd guess it's a self-released pressing as no label name on label, in fact it's a pretty primitive label design with bare minimum info, but don't let that fool you or put you off as both sides have their own charm.

Ebony

I'm not quite sure how to describe this.  It's got a Stax feel about it with Hammond organ, sort of funky but not funk if you know what i mean.  Anyway, I don't really need to as the sound clip's here so make up your own mind. 

Sweet Things Of Life

This one is right up the Lowrider's street - sweet soul group harmony.
