 A long lost Collectors recording has surfaced. The virtually completed track, Everyone Say, sounds as if it was recorded in the same 1968 time period as the band’s eponymous first album. Vancouver deejay Larry Hennessey has Facebook posted a listening session video of four people, including former lead singer Howie Vickers, listening to a playback of the track.

Hennessey co-owns ReGenerator Records which cleans up master tapes for re-release retrospectives of Vancouver artists such as The Poppy Family/Terry Jacks. Hopefully, Everyone Say will be available for download or on a compilation album later this year.

In addition to Vickers, two other Collectors are alive. Both singer/guitarist Bill Henderson and multi-instrumentalist/harmonist Claire Lawrence are still musically active. Henderson fronts a current version of Chilliwack which he and the other Collectors morphed into after Vickers left the band in 1969. Lawrence left Chilliwack in 1972, but has collaborated with Henderson on assorted projects.

There have been two Collectors reunions in 1995 and 2010. Neither bassist Glenn Miller nor drummer Ross Turney joined the reunions, Miller died in 2011. Turney passed in 2014.

 Just wondering, is there a source you know of that can confirm the release date? I've been curious for a while. Different sites claim this was released on dates ranging from fall of 1967 to June of 1968.

 The U.S edition was issued in May 1968, since the New Syndrome issue used the US catalog number I think you can take it that the Canadian copy was issued more or less simultaneously with the US one. Definitely 1968.

 Some pages give this album a release date of 1968, but Canoe's Canadian pop encyclopedia and other sources give the release date as 1967. The overall impression I get is that this album was recorded in the fall of 1967 and released in the winter of 1967/68.
