Kenyatta


Toledo, 1974

Little about this group is known to us. which is a shame, as their apparent lone 45 is a savage antti drug funk record with a deep dance groove. The songwriter is Keith Rose. 

The 45 was issued on the Ndugu label. Art Weiseger was credited as the producer, as his was on all the 45s on this label. Kenyatta was the name of the first Prime Minister of independent Kenya, and the name was referenced often in African-American culture in the early 70s culture of Black empowerment and discovery of Kenyan roots. 

It seems that Art Weiseger is deceased
