-
Keyboardist
and
composer
Weldon
Irvine
is
among
the
most
celebrated
Jazz-Funk
artists
of
all
time.
A
longtime
bandleader
for
Nina
Simone,
he
wrote
the
lyrics
for
Simone's
iconic
civil
rights
anthem
"To
Be
Young,
Gifted
and
Black".
Throughout
the
1970s,
Irvine
released
a
series
of
seminal
albums
full
of
deep,
soulful,
funky
grooves,
many
of
which
were
later
mined
for
samples.
The
Sisters
is
a
collection
of
lost
tracks
and
demos
from
his
late-1970s
studio
sessions
with
fellow
JazzFunk
luminary
Don
Blackman.
Featuring
the
hit
single
“Morning
Sunrise”
(later
famously
sampled
on
Jay-Z’s
“Dear
Summer”),
the
album
contains
a
potent
mix
of
instrumental
and
vocal
tracks
that
stand
up
with
the
best
work
in
Irvine’s
impressive
catalog.
