Description

This is a rare original copy of the excellent SALT OF THE EARTH LP by THE SOUL SEARCHERS on Sussex Records (SRA 8030) from 1974.  A fantastic funk/soul record from this great group led by the legendary CHUCK BROWN, featuring several classic breaks, including the heavily sampled "Ashley's Roachclip".  The vinyl is in VG+ condition with some light marks and wear and some light, unobtrusive surface noise. The cover is in VG+ condition with a few minor scuffs and dings, as pictured.  Includes the original Sussex Records insert sleeve with some light wear, but all seams perfectly intact.  Don't pass up a rare gem like this!
