The founder of The Escorts who formed the group at Rahway State Prison in NJ sang lead on this funky message song from their second LP, produced by George Kerr.
❤️ The Escorts! Reggie experienced a lot in his life and had much to say, which came out in his music. You're spot on about the Whitfield'esque nature of some of their songs. "Brother" immediately comes to mind. It wouldn't sound out of place on The Temptations 'All Directions' album.
I didn't know about the planned movie and Hollywood's shameful plan to use white actors! I'm glad Reggie and the band said "no!" I hope they also told them to "fuck off!"
