Consumer Rapport
Also recorded as Wing
and a Prayer Fife and Drums Corps. Consumer Rapport were the first group to
record a version of "Ease on down the road", from the Broadway musical
"The Wiz". This originally appeared on a promo-only 7" 33rpm
record, later being commercially released as a shorter version with a different
b-side, and finally pressed onto 12" in 1978. We also particularly like
their funk version of "Go on with your bad self".
