Total Eclipse

Description:

This is the world's first CD release of the only extremely rare recording from 1976 by the eight-piece funk band formed in New York City. The group featured singer Bernard Fowler, who later formed the NYC Peach Boys and was featured by Herbie Hancock, Bootsy Collins, and the Rolling Stones. The group also included Bernard Fowler, a singer featured in Herbie Hancock, Bootsy Collins, and the Rolling Stones, which may be why the songs are more oriented toward slow ballads. The group's New York sensibility, similar to that of the Fatback Band, as well as its hard funk with thick horns and booming synths, make it unique. (C)RS
