The Mike Cotton Sound (2015) RPM - Rare UK MOD/R&B/Soul/Boogaloo (MP3 LAME)

This band were massive in the UK in the 1960,s especially on the R&B/Soul club circuit. many tracks from this extended album were huge floor fillers on the Northern Scene. They started life as an acclaimed trad-jazz band before evolving into a jazzy Mod/R&B combo in 1963. Issued in 1964, the band’s only  debut album LP is now a legendary rarity, with copies changing hands for up to £1000. You can read more info at this Site
