    • 1. Sharon Revoal – Reaching For Our Star
    • 2. The Swan Silvertones – If You Believe Your God Is Dead (Try Mine)

    Two absolute & rare classics on one 45. Sharon Revoal -Reaching For Our Star - big tune with Gilles Peterson, Floating Points and  Four Tet is a sultry soulful yet funky slo mo disco tinged masterpiece that originally surfaced for Forte Records around 1980. On the flipside surely one of the funkiest gospel 45's to come out of the early 70's from The Swan Silvertones that originally came out on the US label HOB.
