1972

STREET OF TEARS * BLACK HEAT * ATLANTIC 10270 * UK

Despite having some small success', notably with No Time to Burn, it would seem that the group only recorded for a short time and only for the Atlantic label. Members were Johnell Gray, Bradley Owens, Chip Jones, and Raymond Green. Although they are known as a Funk band the above Soul ballad is an outstanding cut, very much in the Chi-Lites mould with the lead vocals having that desolate sounding echo swirling and drifting throughout the song.
