★ First limited edition ★ With obi ★ This is the world's best student band rare groove! A storm of jazz funk coiled by the 70's Kashmere High School Brass Band from Houston, Texas, with an astonishing groove that you wouldn't expect from high school students! The songs, jacket design, sound quality, and every aspect of this rare groove masterpiece will be reissued on LP for the first time, including the four titles in the entire catalog!

Following the previous album "Plays Originals", this is the 7th album released in the same year, 1974! Starting with "Rhapsody In Blue" (A1), a cover of the standard by Gershwin, arranged in a way that symbolizes the Cashmere Stage Band's fusion of big band and funk, Conrad Johnson's original song "The Zero Point" (A3) is a hard-boiled funk tune with a thick brass section and funky groove that crosses over with the big band! Furthermore, "$$ Kash Register $$" (B1) by "COLD FIRE", a group of elite members in the later stages of the band who were emerging as a band within a band and who would release their songs on the label of Bubba Thomas, a student of Conrad Johnson, after graduating from Cashmere High School, is a killer jazz funk that is a must-listen!
