Two CDs. A comprehensive retrospective of Baltimore's mid-'60s/early-'70s label, Chariot Records. Features the complete Chariot discography on 2 CDs for the first time, including 5 previously unissued tracks. Collection showcases the complete recorded output of Coyote and Baltimore favorites Bob Brady And The Con Chords, alongside recordings by Pen Lucy and Gus Johnson with Hope. Liner notes by former Chariot owner and producer Brent Gordon. The 1960s were exhilarating times for the music business. Independent labels across the United States were creating overnight sensations almost daily. Creative hubs like Detroit, Memphis, Chicago, and Los Angeles were shaping and defining the sounds of tomorrow-today. Among these vibrant scenes was Baltimore, Maryland-home to Chariot Records, a label that delivered a deeply soulful strain of R&B unlike anything else in the country. Omnivore Recordings, the award-winning reissue label, is proud to announce the acquisition of Chariot Records. Founded in the mid-1960s by three record promotion men, the label enjoyed a brief but impactful run from 1966 to 1972, primarily releasing singles that captured the spirit of the era. What's Happening!! The Chariot Records Story is the first official chronicle of the label's recorded legacy.
