PIECES OF PEACE: 1972 - Pieces of Peace

"PIECES OF PEACE arose from the primordial stew of 1960s Chicago to become the band behind the Windy City soul movement. Their aesthetic merges the hard Chicago sound (heard in artists such as Barbara Acklin, the Artistics, Gene Chandler, Syl Johnson and Jackie Wilson), with the spiritual jazz-funk sound built up by the Pharaohs - binding two unique sounds linked to Chicago on one visionary recording.
The Pieces of Peace album is the missing link within Black Chicago music, not to mention one of the last recordings featuring the mighty Pharaohs, who lent the talents of Derf Reklaw, Aaron Dodd and Willie Woods to the production." Review from NinjaObsession.

MEMBERS ARE:
Bass, Vocals - Bernard Reed
Congas, Whistle, Noises [Siren] - Derf Reklaw Raheem
Drums - Fred Crutchfield
Flute - Joel Brandon
Guitar, Vocals - John Bishop

Organ, Piano, Vibraphone, Vocals, Producer - Ben Wright
Alto, Tenor Saxophone, Cowbell - Jerry Wilson
