I'm still hoping that Westbound will release the complete United Soul album that was recorded around 1972 in Canada.

US = Garry Shider, Larry Mosson, Cordell Mosson, Ben & Slim Edwards and Harvey MgHee.

Some of the tracks* has been released.
The complete recordings are :
Rat kissed the cat (Quarter moon)*
Baby I owe you something good *
I miss my baby *
Be what you is *
This broken heart
Seven pictures at the wall
Trick for fix
Society please

Fact: Most of the tracks on Funkadelics "America Eats It's Young" has been recorded with the help of United Soul (no credits has been given).

Makes me wanna holla, I thought that was recorded at a studio owned by the father of an old friend of mine... I pestered my buddy about trying to find the guy but no-go.... are these sessions also 'available' as 2 boot cd's called 'Turds 1 & 2'?

Those songs were recorded in Toronto at the Manta or the Toronto sound Studio's. Terry Brown and George Simkiw where the engineers at the time. I do not know the TURDS album (shame on me). Any details.

It's not an lp but a double cdr boot set that some mook on 1Nation was selling- a bunch of people said they were ripped off, others said they got the cdr's and they did indeed contain promised 'America Eats Its Young' outtakes. I think the Guess Who recorded at Toronto Sound (Wheatfield Soul, anyone?), for some reason I thought Alice Cooper recorded there too. Funkadelic used to live here, they played at a number of bars but I have yet to track down a single recording...

Funkadelic lived their to get away from the Vietnam thang. They also did a movie there. George bumped in to the guy who had shot the video some years ago. He gave George his number. George lost the # again. Now someone is sitting on a 72 Funkadelic documentary.

Help!

Hm, did a small part of that documentary include live footage of the band in the Bahamas from that era? The TO/documentary notion sort of rings a bell... the story was brought to my attention around the time of PCU filming...

No it wasn't Erik. The documentary was called "Out in the woods" or something like that. It was filmed while the group was in Canada. The film was about 3 hours. The tapes are still in the hands of the person who had filmed the documentary. Eddie and Boogie told me that this film was some of the craziest ever.

I'm thinking of placing an ad in a big newspaper. Maybe that we can find the guy this way!

Keep our fingers crossed.
