Jr. & His Soulettes 'Thing, Do The Creep'






















Jr. & His Soulettes 'Thing, Do The Creep'

Preposterously gifted and funky young family from Oklahoma led by Harold Moore Jr. (aged 10) on guitar and backed up by his sisters Vinita Marie (9) on bass, Denise Marshall (7) on drums and Jacquelyn Marshall (6!) on waw-waw organ. This 1971 LP is a holy grail for funk collectors. Allegedly almost all of the original 300 copy run of the album were damaged beyond repair when they were shrinkwrapped on a meat packing machine in a classic DIY effort that went tits up.
