RELEASE DATE

2003 release. Vampisoul presents, for the first time on cd, the reissue of the impossible-to-find album by
Willie Henderson
,
Funky Chicken
(originally released on Brunswick, 1969), with 5 bonus tracks. It comprises the entire and very sought after
Funky Chicken
LP, plus three songs from non-LP Henderson singes, and two previously unreleased tracks that you can find on our release ONLY and for the first time. Producer/arranger Willie Henderson's versatile talents can be heard throughout the Brunswick Records catalog as well as a myriad of sides recorded during the '60s-'70s heydays of Chicago soul. Born August 9, 1941, in Pensacola, FL, Henderson's family moved to Chicago when he was a child. Taking up the baritone sax, he began backing
Otis Rush
and others while in his twenties. He also studied with another arranging legend,
James Mack
. After graduating from College, Henderson began playing around Chicago, backing
Syl Johnson
,
Alvin Cash
, and
Harold Burrage
. He joined the Chicago division of N.Y.-based Brunswick Records in 1968. Working with producer
Carl Davis
, Henderson arranged, produced, and played on records by the
Chi-Lites
,
Jackie Wilson
,
Tyrone Davis
,
Barbara Acklin
, and other Brunswick acts. There he would record, one year later, this
Funky Chicken
, credited to
Willie Henderson and the Soul Explosions
.
