This totally forgotten Montreal band released a few singles in the 1960s on the Columbia and Capitol labels, the best of which is probably the groovy 'Never Say Die', which according to Billboard magazine was rush-released by Capitol the week before Christmas 1967. The song itself never bothered the charts much, though the bouncy organ and guitar dance could certainly have foreshadowed the nascent bubblegum genre that exploded the following year with the likes of the Ohio Express, the Archies, the Lemon Pipers and all those guilty pleasures. What makes this record one to search for - aside from the still reasonable $50 price point - is the fact that the Footprints were fronted by a 19-year-old singer named Yank Barry. Born one Gerald Barry Falovitch, the pioneering producer (responsible for the first quadrophonic recording in 1970), ex-shady huckster (sentenced to six years for extortion in 1982) and now philanthropist and Nobel Peace Prize nominee has received more than 20 humanitarian awards for his Global Village Champions Foundation, which strives to provide nutritious meals to the poor all over the world...at nearly one billion and counting!
