ARCHIE BELL & THE DRELLS - Tighten Up (Lossless)(1968)

An incredible bit of southern funk, the first landmark album by Archie Bell & The Drells, and the first big burst of energy from the Texas scene of the 60´s!! The album's incredible, with Archie up front on rough-hewn vocals, the band grooving in a mad tangle of guitar, bass, and drums, and some super-fierce horn work by the TSU Tornadoes!! You've no doubt heard the band's classic "Tighten Up (Pt. 1)", but this album also includes the incredible "Pt. 2" to the track, which takes the groove a million miles higher!!
