Living Truth "Freedom Bell" 7" on Randy's (1977)?

Post by Marky Dread »

Hello All!
Anyone have any info on this band "Living Truth"? Heard this 7" and it's top notch! Mega horns, great harmonies...
Any other music from them? History?
Thanks in advance!

I have an MP3 of a track called "Primitive Man" which they did also around the same period.

Dont know anything about them but the vocal style imo is very reminiscent of Eric Donaldson.

The group started in Jamaica and ended up in NY Primitive man was done with Clive Hunt. Before I found more info on them on internet but cannot find it now. But it was there, search it and they have an ouput of at least 5-10 singles mostly on different labels. Most are on You Tube.

Thank you! A bit more research finds they are currently based in Brooklyn and still making music! Quite a few videos up on YouTube, and the stuff is pretty good!
