Willie Feaster and The Mighty Magnificents were one of metropolitan New York's premiere working bands during the funky 70s. The pride of Jamaica Queens, they crossed the same paths as Newark's Kool and the Gang and Harlem's Flame 'N' King. While the Magnificents had a hit with "Funky 8 Corners" on All Platinum (the label that preceded Sugar Hill), Feaster recorded a fair amount of material for tiny indies such as L. Brown's and his own Smog City. Though the Mighty Magnificents' repertoire was broad enough to include sweet soul ballads (which will be included on the CD counterpart), this LP concentrates on the danceable soul, boogaloo, and funk that packed New York auditoriums of the five boroughs from the late 60s to the early 70s.A1 Whacha Want Us To Do 7:10 A2 Call Me 5:11 A3 It's No Big Deal 4:22 A4 I Think I Finally Got You Girl 2:56 A5 Funky Beat 2:41 B1 On The Dirt Road 3:37 B2 Willies Boogaloo 3:30 B3 My Home 2:46 B4 Tonight 3:16 B5 The Greatest Is You 2:43 B6 Voices Calling So Loud 2:45
