Pollution (1971 Vinyl) Prophesy Records - SD 6051

 

MP3/320Kbs/86MB
jazz-funk/soul

Pollution were an American jazz-funk/soul band from Los Angeles that released two eponymous albums on Prophesy Records in 1971/72. The music on both releases is soul-inspired rock with horns and occassional nods to country rock. I wouldn't call it psychedelic but it definitely draws on 60s era rock as well as period social concerns. The first album is is the funkiest of the two, in part because of the contribution of Dobie Gray, who has a much more soulful sound than the vocalists on the 2ns album.
