GARY - Chilling Out ((CD))
In his late teens Rev. Gary Hairston wasn’t only serving the Lord, he was also a member of funk outfit OPUS 7, that recorded the great album “Thoughts” in 1979. Although it was distributed nationwide, the group album was not very successful. In 1983 the Winston-Salem, NC native Gary Hairston delivered the now mega rare album “Chilling Out”, his debut solo-album under the moniker GARY. It was recorded under the auspices of legendary musician/producer Harry Deal at his Galaxie III studios. Now the album is a well sought after electro, funk and boogie classic, and EVERLAND is proud to present the very first and official reissue of this previously almost unobtainable private press nugget. Funk and boogie, rock and soul flow gently into another on this album A must have for fans of Chicago, Hot Chocolate, Curtis Mayfield, Funkadelic First pressings fetch insane prices among collectors if they ever turn up A legendary yet long lost sacred gem for late 70s and early 80s funk Packed to t
