Very nice, if you can't dig this you need a new shovel. Thanks for sharing this.
I have this record since before but I can really recommend it!
Reuben Wilson is really great as an organ funk player.
To anyone interested in one of the best organ funk records from way back I would recommend Reuben Wilsons 'Blue Mode' from 1969. In Blue Mode Reuben Wilson uses a number of organ funk bass lines together with funky right hand riffs, and he has the great Melvin Sparks on guitar. A few tracks (actually half of that record) in this compilation is collected from Blue Mode: Orange Peel, Bus Ride and Blue Mode.
My favourite is without any hesitation the super funky and catchy Orange Peel.

Very cool beans Flageol!
Reuben Wilson is one of my all time favorite B3 funk-meisters, thanks for sharing.
