"...the best band in North America."
Here's a little taste of the band once hailed as "the best band in North America," by Anton Newcombe of The Brian Jonestown Massacre:

...And before they were the High Dials, they were The Datson Four (and even earlier, The Datsons)! Same band, same great music:

George - I've been looking for this album for AGES! Any chance you can post it in mp3 format instead of mp4?
Of course, I meant instead of m4A. D'oh!
i, too, looked for it forever.
about 4 years ago i was really into The Datsuns (from new zealand) and i found a mislabeled "for a love supreme" on a p2p client. i loved it so much, thinking that the datsuns did something different, out of their norm (how stupid was i?). anyway, it became my favorite "datsuns" song... but later when i was looking up the lyrics for it, i found out that it wasnt the datsuns at all, but a band from canada called "the datsons" who changed their name to "the datson four" to avoid getting confused with the new zealand band "the datsuns!" ha! anyway, i hunted their album down, finally finding a place that claimed to have it, waited for like 2 months for them to get a copy of it for me, then i finally had it! every song is excellent. i hope you enjoy it as much as i did/do.
here it is in mp3: http://rapidshare.com/files/18784445/see.zip
George,
I too, downloaded for a love supreme off p2p some years ago, thinking it to be a datsuns song.
now, thanks to this very blog (and google) - my suspicions have been founded!
Downloading now - thank you VERY much!
Nick.
what an amazing band. Thanks for posting this.
Well, it seems like a few of us have encountered the same thing. I also had downloaded that mistagged For a Love Supreme.
A little quick research finds that The Datsons (Datson Four) are now known as The High Dials. They have an awesome little song called The Holy Ground which was used for a Rogers commercial. To find that out, I hunted down Rogers commercials on You Tube. Mystery solved!
