“Westbound #9” #24 8/8/1970

The second Top 40 effort from The Flaming Ember, a blue-eyed (read: Caucasian) soul band from Detroit. They would have one more moderate hit before all that went away. The group changed their name to Mind, Body and Soul (the name of their first hit) and became part of the Motor City club scene. This one’s quite funky, actually.
