Description

Here's a scarce original copy of "Solutions" by Greenflow, issued in 1977 in a micro-edition by QCA Records (Burbank, CA). This copy is signed by band member Faye Bremmer under her name inside the gatefold cover. The band flew completely under the radar for years until a track appeared on a recent Numero Group compilation, "WTNG 89.5 FM," causing aficionados of smooth 1970s soul and funk to sit up and take note. Since then a handful of copies have seen the light of day (this one is the 5th, as far as I know), only to disappear immediately into what must be some pretty deep and impressive soul collections.

The vinyl grades NM with a few inaudible sleeve scuffs on side 1. The gatefold sleeve grades VG+ with ring wear, a smudge to the front and another near the spine bottom, light edge wear, a seam split just starting to form at the top back corner

Here's what the WTNG liners have to say about the band (note the existence of the LP is not even mentioned):  

Greenflow was an agile soul group that delivered the lion’s share of their performances on military bases from the Aleutian Islands to Wuerzburg, Germany, along with several strategic points in between. Bandleader A.J. Greene was an ex-marine who far preferred entertaining personnel to active duty. “After carrying a gun, it was nice to carry a trombone,” he recently remarked from his home in Pasadena, California. Although Greenflow’s roster fluctuated over the years, prominent on this recording was his younger sister Eleanora, whose previous gig with the Superbs yielded a few significant titles on Dore Records in the mid-1960s.
