Fessor Funk: Take Me To The River [1975]

A fun, up-tempo, clav-happy version of this, with a string line that calls to mind this immortal classic.

I see this came out on Roxbury, originally - the label behind Ujima from an earlier post. Was Fessor Funk from Richmond, VA, too, Emmett ?

I don't think these guys are from Richmond, ib. The little I've found about them on the Interweb suggests they're from NY. But yes, the original label for both releases was Roxbury. I don't know where Roxbury was headquartered -- L.A., I think.
