Where it came from
Released in 1968 on the Chicago-based One-derful label, this single sits at the intersection of soul music and the burgeoning Black consciousness movement of the late 1960s. The track reflects the label's commitment to capturing the raw, gospel-inflected sound of Chicago's South Side, serving as a social commentary during a time of significant cultural and political change in the United States.
The recording features the Redemption Singers backed by the One-derful house musicians. The composition was crafted to resonate with the pride and self-determination of the era, fitting into the 'soul' genre that was increasingly used as a vehicle for community solidarity. While the One-derful label faced numerous distribution and financial challenges throughout its lifespan, this specific release remains a significant artifact of mid-century urban soul music production.
