That pic is Cold Gritz & The Black-Eyed Peas. I can tell you pretty much anything you want to know about Cold Grits, their origins, as well as Cold Gritz & The Black-Eyed Peas. We cover their histories extensively in a documentary I’ve directed called Bayou Country (named for the only single released by CGBP).

I knew the band well (Brothers and Sisters) and saw them play several times. . The actual musicians were Guy Bradley-keyboards, Alonzo “Pato” Johnson – bass, Eddie Harris – guitar, and Herman “Rat” Johnson” drums.

Nice record – thanks!

I don’t know if this is the band involving Sister Geri, but there’s a Black Eyed Peas with a 1970 record on Ultra-City, a Michigan label. I haven’t heard it, but I gather it’s northern soul. The label says it’s a Choker Campbell Prod., produced by Willie “Face” Smith. Song is “Smallest Man Alive”, writing credits to “Corinthian Kripp Johnson”.

Cheers
