These exclusive 45s feature versions of Watch Tower’s ‘Forever, Together’ mixed by Sean P. from the original 1974 multi-track. Limited to 100 copies and only available here.
Maurice Moore’s first recording session was at Peppermint Studios in Youngstown, Ohio, in 1974, singing lead on ‘Forever, Together’ for Watch Tower’s only release. Written, produced and arranged by Moore, alongside a five-man band and recorded by Gary Rhamy, operating a newly-installed 16-track setup. Peppermint had a reputation for high standards at affordable rates and had a label in-house, which had previously released records by Poobah and Alias Funk & Soul. The following year, local outfit Taste Of Love were in the booth recording their single ’Love Meditation’. “One of the reasons I wanted to start a studio was the abundance of musical talent in this area,” says Rhamy “I was amazed at the number of quality musicians.”
Maurice granted Backatcha his surviving tapes in 2018 and Sean has mixed multiple versions of tracks which had no available master. 'Forever, Together' was cut for 45 release on Backatcha twice (BK063 & BK066). However, on each occasion it was decided that changes needed to be made to the mixes; and both versions were shelved before manufacturing. Backatcha has extended the original run of just two white labels for this limited edition special.
