I'm lived in Chicago my entire life (37yrs)and I used to love to see these guys play on STATE ST. in DOWNTOWN CHICAGO! They may be based elsewhere now, but they were born and bred in the CHI. This is a mix of Chicago Southside and Westside musical influences. Recognize.
Saw these guys live at greenbelt... damn they are better live. gave my friend a drumstick and another a towel, i asked for his shoes. and they are nothing like from chigago influenced, this is jazz/ funk/rock fusion!!
Actually the original was on the movie "Shaft in Africa" 1975 in and it was done by jazz musician,Johnny Pate. The Brass Band and Just Blaze got their music from him.
