SOULG 007LP
|
Reissue, originally formed in 1969. Formed in 1964 in Watts, California, U.S. and based in Los Angeles, the original members were the Texan twin brothers Wallace Scott and Walter Scott plus Gordy Harmon, Marcus Hutson, and Nicholas Caldwell. In 1973, Gordy Harmon injured his larynx in a driving accident and was replaced by Leaveil Degree. Planets of Life was the result of the /incoming change, a vocal soul-funk masterpiece from a renewed harmony group. Often compared to the Isley Brothers, due to Scotty Scott's vocal similarities to Ronald Isley, the band was an excellent R&B combo, turning lately into an electric funk vibe with a clear Temptations twist.

BEWITH 007EP
|
2023 repress forthcoming in Nov. Two seminal 12" mixes of a pair of enormous tracks from The Whispers. Both boogie/street-funk flavored, these sought-after versions have never been paired on the same record before. Side A features the notorious anthem "Keep On Lovin' Me" (the one with *that* life affirming video) whilst over on the flip you'll find the outstanding, semi-slept-on "Turn Me Out".
