    Soul Makossa LP (1973)

    Mainstream Records

Funky instrumental cash-in album on the hits of the day with studio greats like Charles Kynard on keys and Chuck Rainey on the bass.  The are at least 4 funky bangers on here that are recorded very loud with infectious drums including Bill Withers' "Kissing My Love",  the b-boy favorite "House of the Rising Funk",   "Soul Makossa," and more.  A cheap find and a forever keeper.
