      Super-rare Motown album, a one-off project led by Gordon Staples featuring the Detroit Philharmonic Orchestra alongside the ever-formidable groovin Funk Brothers. The title track 'Strung Out" has become a seriously funky rare-groove classic.

      Five years after it's release, the music was featured in the Fred Williamson Blaxploitation film "Mean Johnny Barrows".

      This is a great, unique album!
