Title: Find Someone To Love - LP

Producer: Johnny Brantley
Release date: 1971

The original vinyl LP is very hard to find and thus extremely expensive. According to Popsike the most expensive copy so far was sold on eBay in June 2024 for £1131. The LP has been re-issued (or rather pirated) several times since 2007 and is also available on streaming services and YouTube Music.

Here are the original album liner notes:
"Here's George Scott — doing what many talented youngsters are aching deep inside to do — record an album, to be heard by millions, to decide their fate in this rough life and business called entertainment. George, like so many other talented youths of our times, comes from what today would be considered a large family consisting of nine, George being the eight. This alone, for a poor family from Pineland, South Carolina cause competition to find a place in the sun. George Scott wants to sing and sing he does, inspired by Marvin Gaye, the late Otis Redding, Wilson Pickett. Hung between these giants, one has to find a way to be himself. That's where George Scott is now — getting into his own bag.

You record buyers will determine the fate of George Scott. But of course, the disc jockies across the nation will have to first say to themselves "Let a man come in — let his talents be heard — Here's George Scott."

Hope you enjoy his efforts — EDDIE O'JAY
