Kashmere Stage Band - Texas Thunder Soul 1968-1974



A massive exploration of the music of Kashmere Stage Band -- the legendary Texas funk combo whose work has been pushed heavily over the years by Wax Poetics, Stones Throw, and many others! The set goes even deeper than any of the previous vinyl reissues of work by the group -- and features some previously unreleased tracks, and alternate takes on their funkiest numbers! The Kashmere groove is incredible -- blasting horns, scratchy guitars, and funky drums --wrapped super-tight around a range of original material and some more familiar numbers --  with 18 tracks in all: "All Praises", "Thank You", "Scorpio (extended)", "Headwiggle", "Do You Dig It Man", "Getting It Out Of My System", "Zero Point (parts 1 & 2)", "Boss City", "Burning Spear", "Take Five", "Keep Doing It" and more!

Great upload. Got here via 'A Monsieur Willy World' and have already been acquainted with Kashmere by Oliver 'Soul-Sides' Wang. I'm really curious about this album, plus about other gems I may find on your blog.
