Heavy 70's disco funk rarity from Metairie, Louisiana. Batiste Band is also known as Batiste Brothers. As i found out this 45 was the debut single on the Batiste Bros private label Dynasty Records. They are still active and performing around NOLA area. Check out their website: http://batistebrothersband.com/Home_Page.php
Vinyl rip from my 45's records collection. I've get this record from one of the dealers in New Orleans area, and I guess it survived the Catrina disaster. All the grooves was in the rusty dust and it sounded awfull with a hell of a hiss noise, but after a good cleaning, the record begin to sound pretty well and find it's way to my modern soul funk playbox! Great choone!
