3 Pieces - Vibes of Truth (1975)

In case you NEVER realized, I tend to post Non-Hip Hop on Fridays, so here's the pick of the week. This is a real gem that I obtained from my favorite (now defunct) blogs, and it's on a real funk/soul tip. I'm not too sure if this group ever put out anything else, so If anyone has any other works by these guys, please share!

I must note that Donald Byrd is listed in the credits.
