Do I Make You Feel Better, 1 Audio-CD (Bonus Track Edition)

Ob er nun Jazz spielte oder R&B, der Schlagzeuger Leon "Ndugu" Chancler verbrachte naturgemäß weite Teile seiner Karriere in der Rolle des Seitenmanns. Doch 1979 und 1980 leitete er auch seine obskure kurzlebige Soul/Funk-Band mit dem Namen The Chocolate Jam Co. It's safe to say that the vast majority of R&B fans have never even heard of the combo, which was assembled by Chancler in 1979 and signed with Epic that year. The Chocolate Jam Co. (whose influences included Earth, Wind & Fire, Roy Ayers and Chancler employer George Duke) only recorded two albums: 1979's The Spread of the Future and 1980's Do I Make You Feel Better?, both of which were produced by Chancler and found him writing or cowriting all of the material. The LPs also gave Chancler an opportunity to do a lot of lead singing, which was unusual for him because he was a drummer first and foremost. Unfortunately, neither LP received much attention and both of them went out of print in the early '80s.. Musicians/Players include George Duke, Hubert Laws, Ronnie Laws, The Jones Girls, The O Jays, Gerald Albright
