Ike Turner Presents The Family Vibes - Strange Fruit (1972)

                                                                 The Family Vibes
 Ike Turner Presents The Family Vibes released Strange Fruit in 1971 on United Artists. It was Ike's first album using the moniker; Presents The Family Vibes. It is a really nice LP. Like several of his wonderful albums around this time (Confined To Soul and Bad Dreams), he utilizes many different styles and all of the cuts are very interesting. "Heep-A-Hole-Lot" is acid psychedelic rock if you can believe it. R&B, swing, rock...this album has got everything. Recommended. Mark Yokel
