Keyboardist and composer Weldon Irvine is among the most celebrated Jazz-Funk artists of all time. He was Nina Simone�s bandleader for years, and wrote the lyrics for her iconic civil rights anthem �To Be Young, Gifted and Black�. Throughout the 1970s, Irvine released a series of seminal albums full of deep, soulful, funky grooves. "The Sisters" is a collection of lost tracks and demos from his late-1970s studio sessions with fellow Jazz-Funk luminary Don Blackman. Featuring the hit single �Morning Sunrise� (later famously sampled on Jay-Z�s �Dear Summer�), the album contains a mix of instrumental and vocal tracks that stand up with the best work in Irvine�s impressive catalog. Courtesy of Nature Sounds, this rare collection is finally back in stock on limited-edition vinyl. Order this official reissue of "The Sisters" now while supplies last. |
