DOT Records and basically went nowhere. Blue Eyed Soul wonder Frustrated by the lack of success he started thinking about moving North to Canada and an offer from Harold Kudletts, the man responsible for bringing Rock & Roll to Canada, sealed the deal. The move meant the end of the Matt Lucas trio since the other members had too many roots in Southern Missouri. For his next record he left the formula of taking an established song adding his own drum beat to it and throwing in some extra lyrics. "Turn on Your Lovelight" a Bobby Blue Bland hit from 1961 was recorded in Memphis with the same people as "Maybellene" with the organ at the end dubbed in. The record basically saw no chart action and was largely ignored by both black and white radio. In 1965 he briefly returned to the States when he was contacted by Ollie McLaughlin, producer/manager of Del Shannon, Barbara Lewis and later The Capitols. Ollie had taken a liking to him when he visited Detroit during the promotion of "I'm Movin' On” and he was asked to come up with a song to hook in on a dance craze, which was big in Detroit. The dance was called The Twine and a single by Alvin Cash & The Crawlers called "Twine Time" was a big hit. He wrote “The Motor City Twine” and recorded Part 1 & 2 of the song at United Sound in Detroit with the finest Motown players. The single topped the R&B charts in Detroit but remained a local hit. The second release on Karen, "Baby You Better Go-Go" was also recorded at United Sound but it failed to chart, and he moved back to London, Ontario. (Note: the record later became a mega rare Northern Soul hit in the U.K. Canada By this time he had developed a serious alcohol problem. He tried to stop drinking, worked as a printer for a while but eventually started a new band and called Harold Kudlets to put him back on the road. The newly formed band played all the old Rock & Roll stuff but with more blues and boogie woogie thrown in. When the hippy movement started to happen, he realized it was not his thing and he slipped back into drinking. He approached the lowest point in his life and many times he did not get to eat
