Turning one of ugly America's very ugliest urban environments into sunshiney Jackson 5 soul or goodtime hotfoot funk is no easy feat, but it was a matter of survival for the high school kids at East St. Louis' South End Community Center. A sprawling organization that had a huge horn section, it's own record label, several solo acts, gigs every weekend, & even an African dance troupe that studied with Katherine Durham. Numero's Eccentric Soul series does it again.
