Influenced by Sly & the Family Stone and Rare Earth, Fresh was an obscure, little-known seventies band that combined psyche and funk with rock. The interracial kit, which shouldn't be lost with either the nineties hip-hop technologist or former bands that take called themselves Fresh, didn't get identical far commercially -- quite perchance, its iII LPs were too funky for rock candy stations of the Cross and to a fault rock-influenced for R&B stations of the Cross. Fresh was formed in 1975, when its original six-person lineup consisted of lead vocalizer Bill Pratt, lead guitar player Paul Marshall, calendar method of birth control guitar player Elaine Mayo, keyboardist David Kaffinetti, bassist Milo Martin, and drummer Fred Allen. In 1976, the band sign with MCA, which released its debut album, Get Fresh, the following year. It was besides in 1977 that Fresh was an opening act for Rufus & Chaka Khan; Fresh standard generally favourable responses from Rufus fans, merely unluckily, that didn't render into record gross sales. Get Fresh bombed commercially, and the ring parted companionship with MCA. In 1978, Fresh resurfaced on Motown's Prodigal label with its sophomore endeavor, Feelin' Fresh, and unveiled a raw seven-person card. Most of the original members were inactive on gameboard, although a saxist, George Englund, had been added -- and Kaffinetti had been replaced by keyboardist Frank Savino. After Feelin' Fresh, Mayo left the ring. Neither Feelin' Fresh nor Fresh's third album, Omniverse (which Prodigal/Motown released in late 1978) standard much attention -- and in 1979, the band broke up. All three of Fresh's albums were out of photographic print by the 1980s and ar unlikely to ever be reissued on CD.
