The Two Things In One is a band that by all rights should have been huge. The talented, soulful quintet, with an average age of 16 at the time these tracks were recorded, blended Stevie Wonder-like vocals alongside The Meters, and James Brown-inspired grooves transforming their music into deeply funky workouts. Members would go on to later play with Tower of Power (lead vocalist Michael Jeffries sang with Tower of Power during the late 70s and early 80s), Maze, Sly & The Family Stone, among other notable groups of the era.
