- Sweet Lucy
Includes the original versions remastered, all the collectible
7"s, and several unreleased tunes. This is the only complete
album of recordings from one of the funkiest bands of all time!
This 9-member group from Detroit is widely known for their gritty
funk sound. Here you will find unreleased versions of their known
and unreleased tunes, including warm-up sessions and alternate
takes found in the band leaders basement.To say these young musicians
were proficient beyond their years would be an understatement.
At the time this album was recorded, the oldest member was 17
year-old bandleader Clarence Bennett; guitarist Mark Justice was
just 15. Nonetheless, their talent and musical maturity earned
them the praise and respect of more widely recognized artists
and groups (including the Temptations, O'Jays, Chi-Lites, and
Stevie Wonder).
