EUGENE SMITH- 45rpm 7" single•A PIECE OF WOOD / FREIGHT TRAIN• canada-GOLDFISH-poppy family
Fantastic release by Eugene who played in the Majestics (here comes the judge-Canada funk band) for a brief time, and has been involved in his own thang since the 60's. Doing a unique blend of Funky Folk Blues.
This is produced by Terry Jacks and released on Terry's short lived label Goldfish.
Looks like there was a USA release on Big Tree records, but in Mono, not Stereo like this Canadian release.
Loving this timeless little bit of Canadiana. I gather, these guys were a tight unit.
Found this at the end of the summer in some throw-away records at the side of a book shop
around these parts.
Sometimes pays to park the bicycle to have a closer look at those boxes on the side of the road ;)
This is FABULOUS! Just came from seeing him earlier today. Thanks for sharing!
