The Masters Apprentices - It's Because I Love You

Yes, "Catty" has that break, and yes, they are kind of an Australian version of Budgie, but all of that aside, this song rules.

The Lost Generation - Talking the Teenage Language

From the vocal group that featured Larry Brownlee (writer of "Michael the Lover") and Lowrell Simon (yes, that Lowrell), Young, Tough, And Terrible was the (apocryphal) follow up to The Lost Generation's hit LP The Sly, Slick, and the Wicked which included this slow burner, a top contender for #1 in the psychedelic soul canon.

Aphrodite's Child - Break

Cannot get enough of these Greek weirdos lately, especially this 666 album. If you have a spare one hour and eighteen minutes, you should listen to it, beginning to end. Lead vocals by their incredible drummer, Loukas Sideras (with the white cardigan and striped strides, no relation.)
