Ellis Hall Records News

Previously unissued from 1978 this is the follow up release to the very successful "Those Passing Words" single The Ellis Hall Group.

"Music, Sweet Music" sounds like a perfect little song with lovely summer vibes, a bit of vocal scatting and lovely organ licks from the multi talented Ellis Hall.

We love the feel of this one that sounds like The Crusaders/Blackbyrds, and Stevie Wonder rolled into 2:38 of soulful pleasure.

Flip it over and "Forward Motion" kicks off with some pretty generic 70's horn play, boom, rasping drums and melodies kick in with some fun interplay between Ellis , Patty Unitas and Pat Thomas on the background vox.

The full line up from these recordings are:

Ellis Hall Jr (Keyboards/Vocals)

Patty Unitas (Vocals)

Pat Thomas (Vocals)

David Fuller (Drums/Vocals)

Michael Thompson (Guitar)

Stanley Benders (Percussion)
