Checking out a comic book store that also sells records recently, I found a bunch of choice cuts and other goodies. Including a sealed 8-track copy of the soundtrack to Patty, an infamous 1976 porno based on the SLA's kidnapping of Patty Hearst. Not to be confused with Patty-ploitation movies of the same time period like Abduction (1975) or The Ordeal of Patty Hearst (1979). Patty starred Jamie Gillis and was released in hard-X, soft-X and R-rated versions.
Researching this flick, I discovered The Rimshots, who contributed standout numbers to the soundtrack like Takin' It and Revelation.
That led me to their 1976 LP Down To Earth, released on Stang Records, featuring today's most outstanding joint, Super Disco.
Stang Records was a subsidiary of Sylvia Robinson's All Platinum Records, and The Rimshots were the label's house band. Along with King Curtis, they recorded the original Soul Train theme song.
