Anybody know much about this group that made 2 albums for Whitfield Records [[in 1977 + 79).
They had started out back in Columbus, Ohio as the Soul Superbs who recorded Just Ask Me / Cannibals for Mus-I-Col [[released as a 45 on the label around 1973).
Eventually most of the guys made it out to the west coast & they signed with Norman Whitfield.
Their 1st album included this decent slow track .....

They cut tracks with diverse sounds. Basically they came across as a funk group but cut disco-y stuff + ballads. So of their tracks had a E,W & F feel to them [[which can't be too bad) but they didn't enjoy too much success ........
"What It Is" made No.74 on the US Soul 45's chart in May 77 but that was it really.
By all accounts, they split up in 1980 but some of the guys played as session musicians on other Whitfield Records artists tracks.
