Soul & Power - Wailing Souls



Available to buy: nope


In the early days of the Wailing Souls, the first name that the group came up with in the late 60's was The Renegades. This group consisted of Winston 'Pipe' Matthes on lead vocals, Lloyd 'Bread' McDonald and George 'Buddy' Haye. This line-up recorded backing vocals for an Ernest Ranglin abum before breaking up in 1968. 


Pipe and Bread teamed up with two other singers after that, Oswald Downes and Norman Davis, and recorded the single "Gold Digger" for producer Lloyd 'Matador' Daley. From there they went on to work with Coxsone Dodd's famous Studio One label: Soul & Power is a compilation released in the 80s of some of the great Wailing Souls material from this period of their career.
