| The Southbound Freeway were a band from Detroit, Michigan. Their debut 45 (Swan 4272) from November 1966 goes for big bucks amongst Northern Soul collectors! Black label copies actually play Tony Galla's highly collectable "In Love" (released as Swan 4275). Craig Moerer sold such a mispress on eBay with "Buy It Now" for $750.00. The demo version of #4272 that actually has The Southbound Freeway into it's grooves is regarded as shite by the soul connoisseurs. Not by me! At least not the flipside. "Crazy Shadows" is horrible indeed, but "Revelations" is a fab slightlydelic folkrocker! Their second 45 "Psychedelic Used Car Lot Blues" from '67 was released on several labels (Tera Shirma, Red Rooster, Roulette) and can be checked out on the "Michigan Nuggets" compilation. |
