Give Everybody Some

Hard Texas funk from the celebrated San Antonio scene. As Abe Epstein was tracking West Side brown-eyed soul groups on General Mc-Mullen Blvd., Mickey Foster and his biracial Soul Generation band were answering James Brown’s call to get on the good foot just south of the River Walk. Collected here are a dozen of their swaggiest and crook-legged instrumentals, a mood building survey of the band’s 1969-’77 run, including the paper hit knee-wobbler “Iron Leg.” Chop up your next sample here.
