Yes I was a member of the group! I played bass with them in the 70s
I could not believe it ! I finally managed to find the guys behind the amazing KENYATTA group!
Paris and I spend hours talking about music and I quickly realised that I was talking to a legend of funk, R&B bass player. I ended up starting my own label because of him and released Boogie On Down, EPS001 in November of last year.
While we were chatting, Paris informed me that a year or two after the recording of Kick It Off, they returned to the CBS studio in Manhattan at the end of 1975 to record a full session, including 10 songs from a unfinished project that never actually came out. I asked him if I could listen to those tracks. I was blown away when I opened the attachments and started listening to these tunes. I've never heard anything like it and I knew these recordings were really special. If like me, you love to listen to obscure, unknown and sophisticated killer tunes! I am sure you will love these songs.
After almost 3 years, I was finally able to get a full license of 4 unreleased songs from this session. The master tape has been badly damaged, although the quality of the sound files is far from perfect, I do hope you will still enjoy them.
We managed to remaster them and this is the first time they are released on vinyl by Epsilon Record.Co in a limited edition.
