24-Carat Black - Gone: The Promises Of Yesterday - January 2010 album of the month for Superfly Records! | Comments: 0

24-Carat Black - Gone: The Promises Of Yesterday
(CD/LP) Numero Group NUM025, 2009-07-28
Classically trained Detroit arranger Dale Warren got his start with the famed Motown label and, from the late 60s throughout the early 70s, composed the majority of string scores for soul artists on Stax Records (arranging for such artists as Billy Eckstine, Eddie Floyd, Isaac Hayes, Albert King, and the Staple Singers, among others). During this time, Warren befriended an up-and-coming Cincinnati soul outfit called the Ditalians. After he convinced them to change their name to 24-Carat Black, he took them under his wing - both composing and producing their lone album, 1973's Ghetto: Misfortune's Wealth, a conceptual work that focused on life in the inner city.
when Stax finally shuttered in 1975, and for 35 years, the sketches for 24-Carat Black's sophomore release hibernated in keyboardist and session engineer Bruce Thompson's basement below the south side of Chicago. Abandoned by Warren when the studio bill darkened his mailbox, the tapes, over decades, had fallen into soggy disrepair, useless save for the six tracks featured on this release.

Wednesday, January 27 2010
Our friends Soulist and Freeworker from the What The Funk crew called us on monday and offered to bring Kon & Amir and some selected friends to the store for a drink (thanks to them!). We only announced the 'event' at the end of the afternoon on Paris DJs and on our facebook page and a few hours later the shop was packed with clients, fans, DJs, and of course the legendary beat-diggers from brooklyn Kon & Amir. Both guys are 100% cool and friendly and we were very glad to have them visiting us!!
Here are a few pictures taken by yours truly - I'm no real photographer so don't be harsh... and see you soon at the store!
