Double-L Records  1963 – DL-2301

 

 notes:


Lloyd Price returned with This Is My Band, a powerful soul and R&B LP released
 on Double-L Records under catalog number DL-2301.
Known for blending New Orleans rhythm & blues with orchestral soul arrangements, 
Lloyd Price delivers a dynamic set featuring rich brass sections,
 tight grooves, and polished studio production.
This rare vinyl pressing remains sought after by collectors of classic soul, 
funk, and vintage R&B records from the late 1960s and early 1970s.
