I had often
wondered if Jim and Edith Young had any connection with Florida, given that they
were backed by the Miami Valley Gang on their early JAY releases. Of
course just because the name of the backing group suggests a connection with
the Sunshine state, it doesn’t necessary mean the outfit were from Florida,
after all how many bands used a more evocative name to give themselves an air
of Western authenticity? It was a surprise therefore to discover that Jim and
Edith Young did actually record for LORIDA, a Florida based label. As much as I
like Jim and Edith Young, their Gospel material does tend to pall in comparison
to their secular sides and their efforts at the genre on this EP are no
exception. To me the stand out recording on this EP is Mike Sarlo's secular offering "I Know You Lied To Me".
