Feelings

by Chateau

supported by

funkyma The catchy "Feelings" already sets the bar quite high. But for me, "Strike A Spark" is the secret star of this single (vocoderized pre-chorus included). Favorite track: Strike A Spark.

Chateau - Feelings 7" (w/ Sleeve & Story by Jacob Arnold)
Record/Vinyl + Digital Album
In 1983, Chateau, a San Francisco based boogie funk band, won the KRE Radio Hot Fun In The Sun Battle of the Bands in Mosswood Park, Oakland.
As a prize, they received $5000 (approximately 8 hours) of studio time and a pressing run of 200 45s.
Chateau included Alan Ross on lead vocals and percussion, singer Damara "Candy" Stepney, and Kevin Dailey who sang and played saxophone, bass, and guitar.
Melvin Jones was on horn and keys, Dennis Knepper played keyboard, Frank Lemon played drums, Lemon's cousin Michael Clark played rhythm guitar, Doug Hearne played guitar and Bill Ortiz (from Santana) contributed trumpet parts.
Chateau only released one 7-inch single in 1984, but to this day “Feelings” is, arguably so, one of the most sought-after West Coast slices of funk.
Jerome Derradji and Past Due Records are proud to officially reissue this incredible slice of boogie for the first time.

Wish that both of these stunning tracks would have been reissued as single (with Dub mix)... But hey, it's great to have the long/extended versions with this "combined" single. And the great Frank Cornelius contributin' the bass overdubs is a further plus of these songs! funkyma
