Repress ! Finally!

Lost dark soul/funk masterpiece from Hampton, Virginia high school champions
of Pepsi’s “New Sounds Of 1972” challenge.

The stories of great high school funk bands are, thanks to an abundance of
reissues, commonplace. The tales of great high school soul-bands are still rare.

Enter The Equatics and their brooding masterpiece Doin It!!!! If this is categorized
as a “funk” album - and it was for the last ten years, by those few lucky enough to
own an original copy - it holds its own. But it was as a soul band, one as inspired
by the melancholic musings of Bill Withers as the psychedelic-pop of the self-
proclaimed “Black Moses,” Issac Hayes - that the Equatics shone.
