Yellow Sunshine were a Philadelphia based group that recorded one of the best of the Afro psychedelic funk albums. A strong hard rock edge pervades, which is something that is often missing in these soul-oriented works. This contains a mix of rockier vocal tunes and longer mellow instrumentals. Yellow Sunshine in the big leagues of the scene with Funkadelic and Mandrill. They later evolved into MFSB, a very fine mid 1970s funk/disco group, that recorded the fantastic 'K-Jee', my favorite song on the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack.
