"The Mellow Madness Band was formed in the early '80s by two school educators, Frank McNeil, a school principal, and Malachi Sharpe, a high school band teacher. The two opened a music school to teach young talented music students. The school was named Play-Rite Music -- this was the birth of the Mellow Madness Band. The band's name was birthed out of the philosophy of producer Frank McNeil and band manager and arranger Malachi Sharpe, which was to play mellow music with a funky sound. And now in 2012 Kay-Dee Records has put together these mixes from unreleased master tapes with Kenny Dope on the boards at his Kay-Dee Studio's, N.J."

"It was in June 1971-near Washington D.C., eight students at Mckinley Tech High were daydreaming of national fame. They spent countless hours in band practice, combining a highly energetic mass of instrumentalization, vocals and multi layered soul music calling themselves the Sound Affect Band at first. Later the group changed their name to Mugo Kenyatta meaning wise musicians in Swahili. They eventually shortened it up to just Mugo. Mugo hit the streets by the mid-1970s. Though slated to be the first of many releases on United World Records the single featuring 'Organize' and 'Space Travel' were the only releases. Their following music never left the master tape. By the 1980s the group disbanded. And now in 2012 Kay Dee Records has put together these recordings making it an almost all unreleased album of material with the help of Kevin Coombe and Dave Griffiths. Featuring mixes from Kenny Dope at his Kay Dee studios."
