The Travelaires - I'm thankful (No Label).
Here's a brutal low slung funk cut out of Baltimore, Maryland. A freshly dug discovery from back in January 2016 by digger, record collector and DJ Mattie Valentine (Rattlesnake Records), this is one rare tune that ticks all the boxes. A boss rarity that's prime for more plays....no doubt on that!

The Gospel Soul Survivors 'Hold to Jesus hand' (Jericho)

Sensational Clark Family 'We got to get together' (No Label)
Boss catchy funk cut that's primed for the dancefloor....sounds like an earlier production than the 1983 year attached to the label. Written by Jerry Clark, out of Hollywood, CA.

Gospel Ambassadors 'This little light of mine' (Executive)
Here's another fine recording from the mighty Gospel Ambassadors. There are many versions of 'TLLOM' but this one could arguably take the prize for the funkiest of the lot. Surprisingly rare, from 1976, and utilizes a riff rip of the bassline from a well known funky soul band....see if you can spot it! ;)

The Sensational Jordan Singers 'Singers taking over the world' (Capital City)
High quality southern tinged soulful shuffler with a slight modern touch. There's no date on the label, but I'd think '79 or so would be a good guess.
