Funks answer to the Five Blind Boys of Alabama, Floridas Montgomery Express stood at the crossroads of politically conscious soul and mystically awakened dance music. Comprised of two blind musicians in their twenties and a teenage rhythm section, their lone LP was cut in 1972 for Orlandos Dove label, then reissued on Folkways two years later. Although the label usually steered clear of soul music and anything remotely commercial sounding, Montgomery Express tapped into Folkways Guthrie-cum-Chambers Brothers nerve.
