    One of the greatest transitional 70's-80's changeover tracks, with the title 'Help Is On The Way' being more a statement of its delivery at a time much needed... Another classic bought to the attention of younger 90's listeners via De-La Soul. This is what you get when Tee Scott mans the mixing desk for the Whatnauts; the best of the 70's & a foot in the emerging 80's boogie sound, & it's a personal favourite. Collectors can take advantage of lower prices right now for OG copies, due to the floods of bootlegs & re-issues over the years pushing prices down. Worth its weight in gold & one to treasure...
