6 track, previously unreleased modern soul/boogie funk recorded in 1979 at Paul Serrano’s P.S. Studio in Chicago – this brief glimpse into the band’s efforts reveal plush vocal harmonies coupled with syncopated synthesizers, driving funk bass and brass. The line-up featured members of The Eight Minutes with around 35 members variously making up the Four M Company over time! The bumping groove of ‘You’re Not Functioning’ sounds like a long lost 9th Creation effort, the spacey ballad ‘Searching For The Truth’ brings out the harmonies while the understated, uptempo ‘Live To Be Someone’ is light and airy. The bass driven ‘Awakening’ is a slamming slab of boogie while the deep stepper ‘Sugarfree’ is a quality slowie. Limited to 500 copies.
