Yellow Sunshine

Profile:

Funk rock group from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Formed in 1972 or 1973 by the brothers Karl Chambers (drums) and Roland Chambers (guitar) together with Lester Young (percussion) and Idres Young (bass). Dexter Wansel (keyboards) and Ron Harding (sax) joined the band later.

They recorded only one album, Yellow Sunshine, that did not bring them quite the success they had hoped for. The band was disbanded when Dexter Wansel joined Gamble & Huff's creative staff, and Karl and Roland Chambers joined MFSB.

Members:

Dexter Wansel, Idres Young, Karl Chambers, Lester Young (2), Roland Chambers, Ron Harding
