Description: I bought this copy in the early 90ties from the estate of a GI of the allied US-forces in Berlin who left the city after the fall of the wall.

This is in fact the follow up to the East of Underground double-LP, this time a single LP with gatefold sleeve….

“The United States Army Special Services Agency, Europe, presents the Winners of the Second Annual Original Magnificent Special Services Entertainment Showband Contest, 1972”

Side 1 is by the Black Seeds, Side 2 by Sound Trek ...Obscure army bands doing funky soul in a unique sounding way….Sound Trek turns out to be rawer and more funky than the Black Seeds….

With some life audience sounds, but in my opinion it is cut at the end of the songs in the studio…..

Tracks Side 1 (Black Seeds): Go Outside In The Rain, Ain’t No Sunshine, Black Magic Woman, Do Your Thing, Backstabbers

Tracks Side 2 (Sound Trek): Intro – Kool and the Gang, Walking in the Rain, Backstabbers, Coldest Day of my Life, If Loving You is Wrong, I Love Everything About You
