Southside Movement and Jackie Ross - two groups associated with Chicago, probably produced in the early 1980s, with a very rare jacketless promo (?). World premiere reissue of the LP! The unknown gem of groovy soul 'You Are The One That I Need' is just great! Includes additional previously unreleased tracks from the Southside Movement, which P Vine released on CD in 1991!

South Side Movement, a Chicago funk band that released a combined three albums on Wand and 20th Century between 1973 and 1975. Jackie Ross (born in St Louis), another Chicago female singer who has done a fair amount of work for Chess and Brunswick. The duo's joint release (the equivalent of a six-track mini-album), produced by the talented Chicago producer James Van Lear, has been reissued with the addition of previously unreleased tracks from Southside Movement and new artwork. The tropical/Brazilian-flavoured groovy soul tune 'You Are The One That I Need' is just super killer!　The catchy horn riff is a pleasantly light sound, and Jackie Ross's extended vocals bring a wonderful uplifting feeling to this impeccable hidden gem! Other tracks include the sticky slow funk of 'Cold Hearted Woman' and the horn-led funk instrumental 'Open Air', as well as a powerful unreleased track from the Southside Movement. A must-listen for soul and funk fans.
