Soul Direction has recently released two singles from
The Decisions who originated from Atlanta,
GA,: "That Girl" / "Come Round Here" (SD-013
Nov '22) and "We're In Love" / "I Love You"(SD-005
Jul '21)
After releasing a couple of singles on their own York label in 1969
they were signed to Sussex Records and released three singles in
1971-72. They left Sussex after the third single in 1972 and re-formed
as Unity who released just one single in 1973, "We Can
Make It" / "Too Young", on a label set up by group member Fred White called
Apex.
Soul Direction's Alan Kitchener has been given access to tapes recorded by Unity
around 1973-75 consisting of previously unreleased sweet soul ballads
and crossover soul. The first two songs, both written by Fred White who has made the tapes available, are set for release on 11 Aug
with others lined up for future release.
The A side is a good uptempo number "The Other Side Of You" featuring Henry Little Jr. on lead vocals paired with a falsetto
led sweet soul ballad "Going To A Carnival" with Fred White on lead vocals.
Only two of the group members are still with us, Fred White and
Howard Simson as Harvey Pool Henry Little Jr. and Hildred Thomason are
sadly now departed.
The single is lined up for release on 11 Aug '23 and will be
available from the Soul Direction website.
By the way, it's great to see that the
Melvin Davis
single, the proceeds of which were donated towards his healthcare
bills, has now sold out!
