Where do we go from here - 70's soul/funk with a message

[Scotters]

Hour of 70's recordings covering hopes of better times, issues and struggles still now as 40-50 years ago, but in a very different world.

45's and LP tracks, some have only surfaced in recent times, including the wonderful new release on Soul Junction Records by Willie Williams 'Do you understand'. Also included both sides of The Originals recent 45 on MD Records, Frankie's 'Life in the City' on North Broad St Records & Herb Johnson's 'War' on AOTN. How all these never made it to a release soon after being recorded I just don't know, but thankfully available now and hopefully still more to be found out there. Hats off once again to all those who go to such lengths to find and release such wonderful material and the stories and photos that go with them.
