Charles Wright & the Watts 103rd Street Rhythm Band's 1970 LA funk-soul landmark, built around one of the most enduring grooves the genre ever produced. The title track Express Yourself became the band's signature hit, a self-empowerment anthem that reached number 3 on the R&B chart and was later sampled by N.W.A for their own 1989 Express Yourself. Beyond the hit, the record stretches from tight pop-soul into loose, gospel-tinged funk jams, landing somewhere between the discipline of James Brown and the free spirit of Sly Stone. This Rhino reissue brings a certified classic back to wax, and it is essential for any serious funk and soul shelf.
