About the artist
William Garvin recorded the deep-soul single "Bring Them Home" b/w "Set My Spirit Free" (Will Records 003, via Winds Unlimited/Allied, c.1971). Sir Shambling's Deep Soul Heaven describes him as a deep-voiced, church-rooted singer FROM GEORGIA, with Southern-soul arranging and a spoken sermon closing the song suggesting he may have been a minister.
