The Squires - The Sultan (Single) (1963)
The Squires - The Sultan b/w Aurora [1963]
Album info
This is Neil's first single. These were instrumentals recorded by Neil and the Squires. It was recorded on July 23, 1963 in CKRC studios in Winnipeg as a two-track recording, and it was only released locally. The master tapes are, apparently, lost forever. The versions that should appear on Neil's highly anticipated (and often delayed) box set, the Archives, are taped from a copy of the single and cleaned up.
These were the only two songs that the Squires ever released. They did record later in Thunder Bay (then Fort William), but these songs were never released. These songs were "I'll Love you Forever", "I Wonder" (an early version of Zuma's "Don't Cry No Tears"), and "Together Alone". All have vocals and all are now in Neil's possession (he got them from the producer when he visited Thunder Bay in '92). They also recorded 6 or 7 songs (apparently) in Toronto. These, also, are now in Neil's possession.
