I think it's self titled - this is the one with 'April Fool' on. In my opinion that's the best track but 'Do The Football' is also pretty funky (it came out on a 45 too).

Never really liked that album as a whole. Some pretty naff singing on it, IMO.

Saw it recently sell for £40 and not it's on something like a $69.99 starting bid on ebay.

I'm confused.

Shouldn't be too difficult to find for around a tenner? I'm confused too...

[the old hayes]

hmmm, what is april fool like- disco funk? i've no idea.. might pick one up if i can find it for under a tenner

[john stapleton]

funky rock with big drums.

Breaks and flutes.     Not even a smidgen of disco.

MP3s here...

[the old hayes]

couldn't spot the mp3 on the page, but the description sounds good

the one pictured is a great album, with "april fool" on it. quite a few nice tracks in a funky rock / jazz kinda way. price on ebay tends to average out at about $20.00 (although I got mine for $5 so maybe if you're patient), but it's way over-priced from most uk dealers - just for a change..

did they do more than one album? i always thought they were a one hit wonder. would be interested to know.

[themack]

this is a $5 record, and i highly recommend you dont pay over $5, not that good

[Rich Hero]

Oops, that was the current page - they maybe still in the cache.

Personally I think 'April Fool' is class, and well worth a tenner (but that's just me). They also did a second, and maybe even a third, LP but I only know this one.

yep. they did another in '75, and one more in '78, i think.. can't remember the names and i've never heard them..

i hope 'stalin-man-of-steel' isn't on here, mo'fo' is out bidding me on my cheap copy on ebay

[chrisvulture]

the second one is 'ain't no backing up now'...lots of tracks writtern by alain Toussant, but dont let that fool ya!

one very good track called 'do the football', or summat...just about worth the quid it set me back at the booter earlier this summer...

hayes, I got it for 4.99 on bay being the only bidder, so its not that sought after. I'll trade it to Tavernier if you want.
