MY FAVORITE Urban Crisis PHOTO
Taken at our studio on Garnett Place Evanston in 1974 just after our return from The Watts Summer Festival in Las Angeles not long before we signed our recording contract with Henry Stone Music USA, Inc. - TK Productions' Glades Record Label this was the version of Urban Crisis that spit fire from the stage whenever - wherever we played.
Great memories, great stories, great musicians, great times.
