'If I Had A Love' was a previously unissued 45 played by Soul Sam and Arthur Fenn on UK rare soul scene. It got released on Gary Cape's Hit And Run label and has now been issued on new Sacremento, CA based label Capital City as their first release on 14 Sep 2020, with sweet soul harmony ballad 'Why Then' popular on the Californian Lowrider scene on the other side.
The tracks were written by John P. Jones and produced by a local DJ Gabby Bruce and recorded at Playground Recording Studio in Valparaiso, Florida in 1973. The identity of the group is a mystery and some claim that it is in fact a group named The Dudes who recorded these and other tracks hoping to get an album deal but they were turned down by Buddah and hence they have gathered dust in the vaults for decades.
As you probably expect, the limited edition vinly 45s have sold out, but it is available as download from BandCamp.
