HOLY S***, we have another drop and it’s on time? Greetings to everyone if you are new to this and puzzled. It works like this: I post music, I collect a certain band or artist and I collect the work that I think is worthy of your time for listening or sampling if you are a producer. It can be from just released to a time before 8 trak was born.

Basic Bio:(from discogs)

The founding members of the group were Mose Davis (organ), Leroy Emmanuel (guitar), and Demo Cates (alto saxophone & vocals). Jam sessions with their neighbors Raoul Keith Mangrum (congas) and Jim White (13) (tenor sax) attracted Andrew Gibson (3) (drums). The group never had a full-time bass player, since Davis handled the bass parts with organ foot pedals. Performing mostly instrumentals, the group often backed up various local singers, most notably Spyder Turner, and with the addition of Funk Brothers bassist Bob Babbitt, recorded the demo that became Turner's 1968 hit version of "Stand By Me." The band then hooked up with producer Richard "Popcorn" Wylie, recording the R&B hit "Jan Jan" for Ollie McLaughlin's Detroit-based Moira Records in 1969. The song was such a big hit in Detroit that Moira's distributor Cotillion rush-released a full-length album "Jan Jan". The band dropped the 'Fabulous' from their name for their self-produced 1972 album, What's Up Front That-Counts, for Detroit-based Westbound Records. The group then recorded three singles under a pair of pseudonyms for producer Marlin McNichols, calling themselves first Lunar Funk (2) and then Bad Smoke. Later they cut two albums for the Atlanta, Georgia-based Aware, 1973's Love Sign and 1975's Funk Pump. Though both albums made the Billboard R&B charts, the band broke up in 1976.
Samples:

you when you hit play on this one:

Now this band I would say is a east coast speciality group for sampling & crate digging. Im almost positive that Madlib (even though he isn’t east coast)-Pete Rock-Premier-DITC Diamond D, Marley Marl. There are probably a lot of illegal samples off The Counts catalog. You will see why when you hit play.

Any of these type of producer’s sampled & chopped their work. I think it’s a given because they were semi popular with the funk & soul heads. They lasted from 1964-1974.
It must have been a high school band. I was surprised to see how far back they went.

Now what you get: Not only do you get the debut record, fam, you get the other 3 lp’s, you get the b sides Wowee zowee, what a drop for you, 4 lp’s.

References you might like Counts if you like Meters, James Brown,Ohio Players, Kool & the Gang,Funkadelic,Sly & the Family Stone, Chamber Brothers,War,Mandrill,EWF, The JB's

This is a funky funky group and extremely talented gentlemen who had a great run on a few label’s and you can see by the artwork how cool this music is:

BTW, in case you thought I was slacking, I have MANY MANY MANY MANY that are just being decided who will go first and when I should type this up. Thank you for your interest. If you are new, check out all the previous drop’s. My suggestion is just go back one week. The great thing is, if you don’t like something, there will be something the following day or week.

But for now this concludes the drop for this Sunday. I hope some of the drop fam likes it. Meanwhile you can Count it off until the next one.

Me when Audio eventually starts to run out of stuff to post

It won’t happen, that’s how much I have to prep. I got 10 right now under construction. Haaaave Merrrrcyyyy as Jesse from full house says 😭😭😭

More coming. Plenty of easy pick up’s for the fam. All my drops are zipped with original vinyl artwork scans that I add from the discogs basement. I try to include cool extras. It’s a cool consulting bundle, welcome if you are new. 😎

I was actually surprised more people didn’t sample this catalog. There’s too many potential hits. It must be uncleared hidden samples by the dozens off the drum breaks alone. 🧐

🔥
This the only drop this week or did I miss one yesterday?

This is the only drop this week. I pulled back because of the sott deluxe. 😎

Word word ok cool

you really be looking out always putting me on new s***

well new to me anyway

That’s the idea
