The Chapparrals - Shake Your Head(1978)Maximillion - Rare Soul

Very hard to obtain now on vinyl on the Atlanta Maximillion Label and very little info on them anywhere on the web...This is such a good all round soul album..Superb!..sadly again another obscure group fade away into the mists of time.

Thanks for the review of this obscure LP don't mind Track 2 Stop Cheating On My Lady but instrumentals are very much Ohio Players type/Style and the production is well heavy most have cost a lot to produce and them to disappear without trace this is better than an Indian Jones discovery

Cheers Pedro
