Although pop music enjoyed a larger audience and more expansive industrial structure at the time of rock’s emergence, the rhythm ‘n’ blues genre possessed a richer assortment of the artists who were to mold the new music’s style. Throughout the 1950s and 1960s, the work of these artists provided the strongest and most consistent reason for the quality and appeal of the music itself.
Among the most prominent vocal/instrumental rhythm ‘n’ blues groups of the 1960s was the Chambers Brothers. George Chambers (born 1931) played bass, brothers Willie (1938) guitar, Lester (1940) harmonica and Joe (1942) guitar. They moved to Los Angeles from Lee County, Mississippi, during the early 1950s and their early records included magnificently rough, gospel-tinged versions of soul material, such as "People Get Ready," included in this collection.
Augmented in 1965 by ex-Manfred Mann Drummer Brian Keenan, they became an interracial group. After joining a major record company in 1967, they released several successful singles including “Time Has Come Today” and Ί Can’t Turn You Loose." The band’s black hippie image was taken up by the underground press and new white audiences.
The Chambers Brothers became true funk pioneers, with “Funky" as a catchy example of their innovation in the field. In 1972 the band split up, but re-formed in 1974, and continued to be popular through the 1970s. They were the supporting musicians in a recording session for Maria Muldaur in 1980.
