Lady Love / Moondance (Vinyl 7")

So, it all started with a conversation with Mark GV Taylor of Reference Point: 'Do you know anyone who has a Grady Tate 7" 'Lady Love' promo single in decent condition for sale?' It's the song penned by Jon Lucien. Sometime after our conversation the man himself, Gilles Peterson then dropped it as his last record in his Boiler Room x Dommune x Technics: A celebration of 50 years of the SL-1200 set and so it snowballed from there. We did some research and found out that to try and find this promotional track in form of good condition was as rare as rocking horse poo! So here we now are, with Diplomats of Soul & Expansion Records proud to announce the first official release (from the actual master tapes) of the Grady Tate cover of the Jon Lucien classic Lady Love with the in demand, first time 7" release of Moondance as the B side!! Why this never got an official release back in 1974 nobody seems to know and we will not attempt to describe this version as no words can really do it justice, if you have not heard it then once you do you will understand why we are so excited!!
