Information/Write-up

Strawberry Soul is a rare and amazing instrumental deep funk album released by African-American ex-pat trumpeter BILLY MARTIN. Martin also released an album called I Turn You On on Onion Records where his hit “Funky Feelin” also appeared. He was a local star on the Canadian R&B scene for a while, but disappeared without a trace after this amazing release.
There was an "exact" re-issue released a few years ago. Original versions will have the original Trans-World black and orange label with SNB 5449 and SNB 5450 etched into the deadwax.
Funky Feeling was comped on Canadian Racer. It was also re-issued on Bis Aufs Messer Records out of Germany.
