METRO-TONES INC. - GET TOGETHER (10")
10" (10" Single/EP)

Release date: 11/11/2019
Barcode:
Catalog no.: HJP0000090
Item ID: 486784
Dedicated to the United Nations and especially young people, this is slow-burning, steeply screwed, early-seventies Atlanta funk by James Conley and co, spun out of a line from Eliza Hewett's nineteenth-century hymn 'When We All Get To Heaven'.
The flip is deadly, too: a super-soulful blend of Sly & The Family Stone with Kool & The Gang, movingly confused and sincere in its pleading (without threats or machismo) to be loved back. Both sides come with instrumentals. Check part two of 'Get Together'. Beautifully sleeved.
