ajb Posted November 16, 2016 Author Posted November 16, 2016 (edited) "In the late 1960's, Neftali Santiago's family bought their first home in Willingboro, New Jersey at 22 Somerset Drive. Here he would learn to play the drums and honed his skills, which landed him a spot as the drummer and a singer/ songwriter in Mandrill, one of the most diverse funk bands of all time. In 1975, Santiago took a hiatus from the band and returned home to start a new project. Though he would return to Mandrill in 1978, between the years of 1975 and 1978 Santiago recorded an album's worth of material that has largely been unreleased until now. Under the moniker Santiago, Neftali and the talented multi-arranger Joe Byrne recorded four tracks, two of which landed on the band's first single in 1975. Despite the limited success of the band's only single, Neftali's manager secured high profile tours with The Ohio Players and Gil-Scott Heron. After moving across the country, Neftali started new bands (the Santiago Band, Santiago & Friends, and Neftali’s Beast) and kept recording, though nothing came of the tracks except the mysteriously bootlegged “Bionic Funk” 45 in the late 70’s. Though Neftali’s solo career came to an end in 1978 when he rejoined Mandrill, he left a treasure trove of unreleased funk tracks that are sure to please fans of Parliament/ Funkadelic, Boosty Collins, Sly & The Family Stone, and 70’s rare groove. Manufactured Recordings is proud to present Santiago’s complete recordings for the first time ever." https://neftalisantiago.bandcamp.com/album/22-somerset-dr-1976-1978 Edited November 16, 2016 by ajb 1

Stevecee Posted November 25, 2016 Posted November 25, 2016 I must have missed this thread, but for those of you who were on EMS and don't know, there is a FBook version but sadly its nothing like the Forum with mostly event promos and very little song content, although some folks do post up their Mixcloud uploads, shame EMS was such a goldmine of information. 1

ajb Posted December 12, 2016 Author Posted December 12, 2016 (edited) if you haven't all ready, you'll need one of these in your life before they all go .............. "Another demo tape recently discovered by Family Groove Records. **Hand Stamped limited edition of 300 copies.Hall & Floyd’s previously unreleased 1981 session is a nice slice of Disco Funk & R&B that didn’t make the major label cut. Sunrise is the stand-out song featuring a nice blend of Earth Wind & Fire style harmonies, funky horns, spaced-out Moog Synth and a righteous groove good enough to properly fuel your next Roller Skating party." Give all the tracks a listen............. https://www.juno.co.uk/products/hall-floyd-sunrise/628637-01/ Edited December 12, 2016 by ajb

ajb Posted December 23, 2016 Author Posted December 23, 2016 Loving this........................... "Brass Horizon only ever had one effort put out onto vinyl. The much sought after "We want to play" on the Minda Mark label. Currently commanding big bucks on the collectors scene. The single also made it onto Keb Darge's Deep Funk lp. Now Super Disco Edits has dug deep again, and unearthed some killer tracks by the band. Brass Horizon were heavily into the Bay Area sound of the mid 70's and especially Tower of Power. The first recording to come to light from these dusty sessions is this one off studio mic take, introducing the band. Fully 6 mins long, we have trimmed it down so it gets a 45 release. pt1&2."

Roburt Posted April 21, 2017 Posted April 21, 2017 I like the new Calvin Richardson (available as a free download at the moment) -- TREAT HER RIGHT it's got an vintage Bobby W feel to it (IMO). ALSO like the new Walter Williams (O'Jays) track, not a dancer either but a classy ballad.
