"Mandrill" by Mandrill

[Worf101]

This band was very influential to me. Contemporaries of Santana but with an East Coast Afro Caribbean twist. This footage is from a NY Local Public Television Program from the late 60's and early 70's called "Soul". Soul offered live music, discussions and political commentary. I'd heard of Mandrill already, I was in a band and plugged into the scene. I saw this performance broadcast that night LIVE I've not seen it in almost 30 years. It is rare footage because it's their first TV appearence and all three of the Wilson Brothers are there. Amazing band, multicutural and multiracial before it became chic and hot as the fires of hell...

I remember them. Don't think I ever owned any of their stuff, but I recall listening to this one quite a bit through friends:

Their finest album, without a doubt, without question. Their third album "Undisputed Truth" is a close second, but "Mandill Is" is their finest work.

...a third band I can't remember. I'll have to consult with some of my old friends who will likely remember, but that was a great show, at least what I can remember. Dang, I already mentioned this show the the earlier thread about Ronnie James Dio and his stomach cancer.
