Ginger Hobby Horse & Friends: S/T (RA records 1970)
Another local (Devon) release G.H.H were a lounge band with pretensions of Blood Sweat & Tears. Perhaps not the best introduction, so allow me to lay the boot in a little further. The choice of covers on this LP in parts is enough to put a man off music. There is a light within this nadir however, namely in the form of RA stable mates Indiana Highway (They form the ‘Friends’ component of this LP) in short – thank f*ck. The track for inclusion here is a cover of ‘Love is Blue’. I like this track and I particularly like Indiana Highways input.
“Love Is Blue”

Great track. Thanks for uploading it.
Wow that brings back some memories – I used to go and see Ginger Hobby Horse with someone who I think was Ginger’s sister in law! Spent many happy hours watching this band. What happened to them?
