Description

Music Makers Band – You Can Be (LP) [Now-Again Records NA5281]

Tucked in the back corner of a linen closet in Macon, Georgia since 1979 sat a box that very few people knew existed. Lost and presumed forgotten, this box contained reel-to-reel tapes of the lost album by the band that issued the lauded Black Gold as The Mighty Chevelles in 1977. By 1979, while transitioning to Music Makers Band, the band entered Capricorn Studios and recorded this disco funk opus, finally issued as You Can Be in 2020 and now reissued for 2024. Nearly all songs have been remixed from the original multi-track masters by Kenny “Dope” Gonzalez.
