Underground disco 45, “Magic Mandrake” from the Sarr Band, released on the Calendar label in the UK as both a 7″ & 12″ single with Double Action as a Double A side and also on the Canadian Unidisc record label.
Big with the Love Unlimited & many DJ’s in the UK & US (it was re-edited by Rahaan for his jisco records release) & has featured on many a mix from the States. With a distinctly European sound the vocal is nice & sleazy & has the killer line “Turn this dirty city into a rosepetal garden.”
This acts as a nice little taster for the next installment of our series of mixes courtesy of the Chuck Brothers that will be added to the love unlimited mixes archive soon.
Another fantastic under the counter re-edit ssshhh.
On Blackwiz Records

In the same vein as MFSB for ‘Philadelphia International’, the Salsoul Orchestra where the in-house band for ‘Salsoul Records’. Vince Montana wrote, conducted and produced many of the orchestra’s releases.
The Orchestra had many arrangers & whole instrument sections contributing to their distinctive sound, with sessions attended by up to 50 members on a regular basis.
Plenty of quality musical goodness along the way to take your pick from, but here is the cracking ‘nice n naasty’ from 1976.
By way of dedication & thanks to the wonderful music that Al Wilson provided over the years, here is ‘La La Peace Song’ produced by Johnny Bristol & released in 1974, the sentiment of the song still rings very true today.
All at the Love Unlimited raise a glass of cheer & shed a tear - RIP Al Wilson
Something a bit darker than usual from us at Love Unlimited.
