THE CLASSIC EXAMPLE レコード& CD

Review: The Classic Example were a Los Angeles singing duet consisting of Curtis Colbert and Harriet Hurst. Their eponymous LP was released on the infamous GSF Records alongside infamous acts such as Skull Snaps and The Whatnauts. The backing group for the album is none other than Hodges, James, Smith & Crawford. To date, very little is known about this sweet sounding duo. On High is honored to present the first ever vinyl reissue of their stand alone album. The Classic Example is absolutely killer from front to back and is a must own for any serious soul collector. Newly remastered and pressed on audiophile virgin vinyl for your listening pleasure.

Review: The Classic Example are a classic example of exemplary boy-girl soul greatness. While they're best known for their self-titled 1972 album, they otherwise remained relatively obscure in their heyday, save for a couple more single releases. While the bulk of their music came out on GSF, recent years have seen to their unearthing by Kent Records, who have taken on the job of reissuing a string of perhaps-released, perhaps-not music from the vaults. 'Right On' is the known one of the bunch; an ant-hater anthem for the ages. 'I Found Me A Girl', meanwhile, is a triplet-time soul jam for the sense of relief that sets in on falling in love.
