A very weird later single from The Flamingos – one recorded in the early 70s, almost as a "message cut" that linked together early African American history and the plight of the Native Americans! The intro of the track tells the story of an early black soldier in the early days of the US who was called Buffalo Soldier by the Indians – a bit hokey, we know – but then the tune rolls into a hip slow funk groove that's graced by some wonderful vocals – a lot deeper soul style than the group's classic work! 7-inch, Vinyl record
A killer – one of the group's best tracks! "Rover" has a stunning break on the intro – strings over drums, with a feel that's simply sublime, as the cut hits really hard and sets you up for some super-dope harmony vocals! "Better Off" shows the group's sweet side – but the tune's still a nice ballad! 7-inch, Vinyl record
