It was originally released on a label called Carson. I had an original lp. It had no connection to Pathe at the time. At some point it was issued in the US on the Paula label.
First my friend Donald Clarke issued 4 cds in England on the Chief label in 1989.
Bomba issued 9 titles in Japan in the late '90s.
Neither pressed any lps.
The French titles are the AEC's People in Sorrow and Les Stances a Sophie. These titles were recorded by Pathe Marconi with the understanding (with the band) they would be issued in North America by nessa. Pathe issued a contract licensing these masters to me "in perpetuity". Because of a complication in the '80s involving a third party, the North American rights are hazy. The cd reissues across the pond are at least partially "needle drops" while I have pristine master tapes. When Universal Sound / Soul Jazz issued Les Stances a Sophie they unwittingly used my artwork and compensated me with 100 cds to sell.
