THE STORY:
I've NEVER even seen/heard of any LP on Charay (out of Fort Worth, TX). This one is solid
funk/soul all the way through. There is one 45 from the group (for the song, "On the move")
which has a pretty strong demand. It is a great cut, but there are several better cuts on the
LP, in my opinion. The LP is mostly instrumentals, with two vocal cuts, ALL of which
are AMAZING. These are also the same cats who backed up Willie Hobbs on the
quality "Gloria" 45, also released on Charay. There is no record of this LP (that i can find, at least)
anywhere. I'm pretty much guessing that this'll be the only copy you'll get a shot at. There is
no cover, but i have heard from several prominent Texas collectors/dealers that have heard
of/seen this LP, but never with a cover, so I'm guessing that it never had one.
This is a once in a lifetime record, i'm hoping whoever picks it up might consider re-issuing it
so everybody has a chance to own it. Thanks and good luck bidding!!

I'm posting 7 long clips of choice cuts, check 'em out below...
