JAM OF THE DAY

I AM THE BLACK GOLD OF THE SUN
Rotary Connection



A psychedelic soul band formed in Chicago in 1966. The experimental band was the idea of Marshall Chess, son of Chess Records founder Leonard Chess. Marshall then recruited members of a little-known white rock band, The Proper Strangers: Bobby Simms, Mitch Aliotta, and Ken Venegas. Sidney Barnes, a songwriter within the Chess organization, also joined, as did Judy Hauff and a Chess receptionist named Minnie Riperton, who would later be successful in her own solo career.
