EXITS - ANOTHER SUNDOWN IN WATTS / I DON'T WANT TO HEAR IT

The sparsely-recorded Exits must be considered one of the greatest Los Angeles 60s soul vocal groups. Jimmy Conwell was their driving force, but all four singers contributed. Jimmy and fellow Exit Godoy Colbert, along with label owner Hank Graham co-writing both of these songs. Graham licensed ‘Another Sundown In Watts’ to Kapp records but with the issue being incredibly scarce compared to the demo, it may not have had a proper release. The song is hugely popular among both discerning northern soul fans and harmony lovers and now fetches over £1,000.

Coming up fast on the rails is the catchy dancer ‘I Don’t Want To Hear It’, issued on Cleveland’s Gemini label two years previously. It’s another mid-tempo harmony jam, ideal for today’s ageing dancers. – Ace Records
