"Doin It" by The Equatics is a rare and highly sought-after funk LP, originally released in 1972 and now reissued by the renowned label NOW AGAIN. This album stands as a testament to the raw talent of this high school band from Hampton, Virginia, who managed to create an authentic blend of deep funk, soul, and jazz that has captivated collectors for decades. With tracks like "Merry Go Round" and "Where Is Love?", The Equatics showcase tight musicianship, soulful vocals, and infectious grooves that transport listeners straight into the golden era of American funk music. NOW AGAIN's meticulous reissue ensures audiophile-quality sound while preserving all original artwork and liner notes for true enthusiasts.
The Equatics were formed in the early 1970s by students at Hampton High School. Despite their young age, they quickly gained local fame with their energetic performances and sophisticated arrangements?a rarity among teenage bands of their time. Their only album "Doin It" became a cult classic after its initial limited release; over time it was rediscovered by crate diggers worldwide who praised its authenticity and musical depth.
NOW AGAIN Records is celebrated globally for unearthing forgotten gems from across genres?especially soul, funk, psych rock?and presenting them with care through deluxe reissues. Founded by Egon Alapatt (formerly Stones Throw), NOW AGAIN has built a reputation on quality curation: every release comes with extensive liner notes detailing artist histories alongside remastered audio sourced from original tapes whenever possible.
