The Poets were a New York group who were released in the UK as The American Poets because there was a UK band with the same name. They did an excellent version of She Blew a Good Thing, popular in Soul clubs in Manchester in the sixties. They also recorded on Redbird.
“She Blew A Good Thing” = 71 on The Top 500 by Kev Roberts.
Later they became: The Main Ingredient: I guess they just didn’t want to be lonely. (Cuba Gooding senior joined in 1971.)
There was a UK sixties group called the Poets to confuse things!
J2 Records was a subsidiary of Juggy Murrays SUE label. Symbol was also another Murray label.
