Sound Description...
This sound was born in Detroit, could only be born in Detroit. As the Story goes, in a lil' Jazz club downtown after hours... a few drinks and clouds of reefer hangin' in the air... Lady Blues was feeling the Soul from Motown, so she Hip-Hopped up on Motown's lap, Rocked back and forth and got the Funk on. Meanwhile, Folk wondered in off the streets with crazy hair and dark shades and wrote the story down. On that night, Sista Otis was conceived.
