    • 1. Headly Bennett & The Hippy Boys – King Street Rock
    • 2. Leroy Bland & The Hippy Boys – Someone To Depend On

    A-Side has a great Hippy Boys instrumental and would easily fit on one of the early Upsetters albums. It can be found on a extremely rare UK Junior Records issue. Leroy Bland, brother of famous US blues and soul singer Bobby Bland, did two songs with the Hippy Boys, while on a short stay in Jamaica in 1969. Both sides produced by Jackson Jones, bass player of the Hippy Boys and the Upsetters.
