Band Members: Floyd Lawson and the Hearts of Stone “K gee” / “It only takes a minute girl” Thanks to a collaboration with our mates at Montreal's Afrokats Records we present for the first time on vinyl 2 crossover soul undiscovered gems from Floyd Lawson and the Heart of Stone. These two tracks were recorded in 1975 for “Coming out” second release from the Hart of Stone and are possibly the best funk&soul tracks ever recorded in Quebeck. On the a side “K gee”, a stormer cover from the Nite Liters on the flip side crossover soul beauty “It only takes a minute girl”. The album “Coming Out” remained un-released and was mainly used as a promotional tool, helping to land gigs within local and international tour circuits. The few privite copies LPs around changes now hands for considered amounts noadays. The Hearts of Stone had previously released their debut album Stop the World: We Wanna Get Off on Motown's VIP label in 1970.RELEASE DATE 05/05
