A very obscure James Brown-produced single for King – and one that showcases this little-known female vocal group. The track's kind of an easy soul weeper, with a mellow loping groove, and vocals that are in the Dee Dee Warwick camp. 7-inch, Vinyl record
Early work by Ebony Rhythm Funk, and much funkier than their later stuff – which actually isn't that funky at all! The record's got a driving righteous message – kind of imploring the listener to get up and go get what they want! Wayne Henderson produced, too – with a sweet electric funk groove that's like early 70s work by The Crusaders on Chisa! 7-inch, Vinyl record
One of those great 60s tunes – with more power than you'd guess from the surface! "Impossible Dream" was a familiar hit from a show, but in the hands of the group, it's transformed into a magical anthem of power and pride – stepping out with a righteous style that's almost like a secret message. "Nobody Knows" is another familiar number, but done in a really great snapping mode – with a cool intro that has some nice jazz stepping, and an almost conversational spoken part! 7-inch, Vinyl record
"Future Shock" has always been one of our perennial faves from Curtis, and it's paired nicely here with the spacey "Other Side Of Town", from his Curtis LP. Beautiful soul, and very righteous! 7-inch, Vinyl record
Massive funk from Stars Of Liberty – a tune that's got this great snapping drum, matched by a fast-riffing guitar – while the righteous vocals move at a slightly different pace, to a really cool gimmick on the chorus! Eye Q serves up "I'm Not Selfish" on the flipside – a tune with this weird, wangly guitar that almost sounds like it's shifting speed in the recording – while the drumbeat stays the same, and adds in this funky undercurrent to a mighty trippy instrumental! 7-inch, Vinyl record
A couple of smooth numbers by this fatastic harmony group who only ever issued a couple singles on the MGM subsidiary Lion. Both numbers hit a righteous sweet soul harmony groove over some great soaring production touches! 7-inch, Vinyl record
