From Tramp Records:
When reading the band name and title of this song you may guess that it is an obscure combo from way back. And when listening to it you just feel that it MUST have been recorded 35 years ago. Let me tell you that you are totally wrong. Although the number of bands that are playing so-called deep-funk steadily increases, few can match the chemistry, urgency and true funk grit as these brethren. The Port Angels (featuring members of The Funk Revolution) captured this soulful living-room jam on Izzy’s humble two-track tape machine. This particular tune was written on the spot and recorded while the band was on tour on the Olympic Peninsula in Washington State. It is the only existing recording of the session. Julie, the owner of the house was away on business and told the guys to “make themselves at home.” Angel Food is an example of what happens when you let Lucky Brown and his friends crash your pad!
From Lucky Brown:
We all had a big ol' bowl of stew that had been cooking all day. Then we all climbed high on the vapor trail. Horseradish Tree started shouting out the chords and Olli and Izzy just sorta fell in. Lucky and Tommy did their best to keep up on trumpet, sax, and piano. We just vibed together with joy and happiness and felt the feeling of being a band, reunited after I had been released form jail that morning. This was recorded in Julie's living room, out on the Olympic Peninsula on an analogue tape machine. We are happy that it has been discovered and hope you enjoy it as much as we did making it.
