Eddie & Ernie are one of my favourite Soul duos and I have featured some of their singles here in the past.
The New Bloods are in fact Eddie & Ernie. They recorded this 45's sides in 1964 and saw them released on two different local Phoenix labels under two different group names: (as The Sliding Doors) on Body, and as The New Bloods on Madley; the only known releases on those labels. The sides obviously made enough noise locally to prompt 20th Century Fox to give the 45 a national release right at the end of 1964. Chart info on the record proves elusive.
The first half of this song is I Found A Love co-written by Wilson Pickett and first released in 1962 by The Falcons (featuring Pickett on vocals) & Band (the band being The Ohio Untouchables who would later morph into The Ohio Players). Pickett also featured the song on his 1965 album In The Midnight Hour.
