Former
Love Affair front man, Steve Ellis, releases a double CD collection of lost
solo recordings from his late '60s heyday on Monday 16th September entitled,
'Rollin’ With the '69 Crew: The Lost Masters'.
Steve
Ellis was lead singer with Love Affair, a London based pop, soul, R&B group
formed in 1966. The group had several UK Singles Chart Top 10 hits, including
the number one success "Everlasting Love".
Further
Top 20 hits followed, "Rainbow Valley", "A Day Without
Love" (both 1968), "One Road" and "Bringing on Back the
Good Times" (both 1969). Love Affair sold more singles in 1968 in the UK
than any other band, except for the Beatles. Steve then moved on to bands such
as Widowmaker as well as a solo artist.
From
recently uncovered lost tapes they have been lovingly transferred and remixed
to high modern standards. Featuring one CD of tracks with the Keith Mansfield
Orchestra and followed by the standard group set up for disc two, this album
features many top artists including Herbie Flowers, Zoot Money, Clem Cattini
and many more.
