I don't remember "Garbage Can" but I do have their 1976 album. I was VERY surprised when I bought the album and looked at the back cover. One of the members of The Soul Train Gang was a local choreographer from my home town of Jackson, MS, the late Hollis Pippin. Hollis danced on a local black dance television show here in Jackson called "Black Gold" which, in my opinion, put "Soul Train" to shame. Hollis also won the competition both times here in Jackson and went to dance on "Dance Fever". He also was a contestant on "Puttin' On The Hits". I was VERY surprised to see that he had any type of affiliation with "Soul Train". I am very impressed. He was a bad man until he gave into drugs.

Anyway, enough of me bragging about someone from my hometown, the tracks on The Soul Train Gang album I have are as follows:

That Certain Way
Ooh Cha
How Much Longer
All My Life (I Wanna Live With You).....featuring Hollis Pippin
Soul Train Theme
If It Takes All Night
Country Girl
Soul Train Theme
Andy is a four letter word.

That's their second album and it was released in 1976.The track "ooh Cha" was released as single near the end of that year.All of the songs from both of their albums are now available on a single CD.
