Does anyone remember them?
An extremely rare soul album originally released in 1973, East Coast’s self titled album features drummer Larry Blackmon, who served as front man for the hit group Cameo; and a cast of session greats including Pat Grant [[trombone); Gwen Guthrie [[vocals); Michael Harris [[percussion); Gregory Johnson [[keyboards); Melvin Whay [[bass) and James Wheeler [[alto saxophone). Blackmon wrote four of the seven tracks on the album, and vocalist Gwen Guthrie [[Aretha Franklin, Billy Joel, Stevie Wonder) is featured on her own “Miss Gigi.” All selections have been newly remastered.

"Essential Media Group" always gives me pause.

Speaking of Larry Blackmon, he hasn't seemed well for some time now - I understand he's now sitting down for gigs...
