Shuggie Otis is an American singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist, born in Los Angeles on November 30, 1953. He is widely recognized as the oldest son of Johnny Otis, a renowned musician.
With his unique blend of soul, funk, and R&B, Shuggie has captivated audiences around the world. His music draws inspiration from various genres and artists such as Cymande, Darondo, Betty Davis, and Curtis Mayfield.
Known for his exceptional talent as a guitarist and songwriter, Shuggie's discography includes timeless classics like "Strawberry Letter 23" and "Inspiration Information." His influential sound continues to inspire generations of musicians today.

This album is one of a surprisingly large number of deeply funky releases that appeared in the late 60s and throughout the 70s by older players - usually associated with either blues or rock'n'roll. On the Modern group of labels alone there were albums by Joe Houston, Johnny Otis and an unreleased gem by Pee Wee Crayton. For years these albums have been treated with disdain by those who collect the artists as commercial sell-outs and were so obscure that they were unknown to funk fans. This has started to change as funk collectors dig deeper - and they have been schooled by years of digging out oddities with an open mind. No frontiers. An original copy of Omaha Bar-B-Q now sells for over ¬£60 in this country.
