Very rare ....

ORIGINAL 1968 first pressing on the BOO ! label, same label that released the legendary LP by "A PASSING FANCY" ...

GRANT SMITH AND THE POWER ... made a loud statement in the north doing knock out high energy shows which flipped over on their only Lp, "Keep On Running." The album has a great sound and represents an essential addition to any serious collection ...

Unknown to many, the obscure but formidable group turned plenty of heads for those who caught their sound...

Val Stevens, Mike Harrison and the Miller Brothers had been playing with Eddie Spencer & The Power when a decision was made on 1 January 1967 to bring in a new singer – Ellis Grant Smith together with guitarist Jim Pauley from The Express. Two weeks later, another former Express member and second drummer, Wayne Stone came in. The first line-up remained together until mid-1967 and initially gigged as E G Smith and The Power before adopting the better known, Grant Smith & The Power. After Charlie Miller’s (one of the Miller Brothers) departure in June, the group went to the United States for the summer of 1967, now working with only one drummer. After returning to Canada, Jim Pauley quit and was replaced by guitarist Jon Palma in September.

 The band’s only LP ‘Keep on Running’ came out in January 1968 and features a well placed attack directly attached to the psychedelic-r&b-psoul scene and is dominated by lots of Hammond organ, fuzz guitar and a high wired tight sound ... see this "BOO!" label release along side of the highly rated "A Passing Fancy" ...
