Did a little digging for this one- thank you Spotify for suggesting William Pulliam aka "Darondo". This guy's background is crazy- According to Wikipedia Durando is, "little known by anyone except serious enthusiasts of his genre...The mythology surrounding (him) is that he was a pimp. Darondo recorded three singles and played four shows in the '70s, and then stopped and drove home in his Rolls Royce after he opened for James Brown. Later he traveled the world collecting interesting artifacts, became king of Bay Area cable with three shows per day, and worked as a physical therapist coaxing patients to walk again". Whatever the case, this song is seriously funky. Enjoy.
