24-Carat Black is Larry Austin (bass); Tyrone Steels (percussion); Jerome Derrickson (saxophone); Ricky Foster (trumpet); James Talbert (electric piano); William Talbert (organ); Princess Hearn, Kathleen Dent, and Valerie Malone (vocals), with Dale Warren who famously orchestrated the strings for Isaac Hayes' albums Hot Buttered Soul, The Isaac Hayes Movement and ...To Be Continued. Ghetto: Misfortune’s Wealth is commonly regarded as one of the first-ever concept records of the soul genre, this dark masterpiece combines the lush orchestral arrangements of Isaac Hayes collaborator Dale Warren with Blaxploitation-style funk grooves, resulting in a sound that would rocket it to cult-classic status among DJs and producers as a source of samples and breakbeats including Kendrick Lamar, Jay Z (on “Can I Live Pt 2“), Digable Planets (on “Cool Like Dat“), Dr. Dre (on “Nas Is Coming“), Eric B (on “In The Ghetto“ in 1990), Naughty by Nature (for “Poverty's Paradise“) and many others. Now on 180-gram vinyl cut at Ardent studios on the original Stax lathe and pressed in Memphis at Memphis Record Pressing. Old-school style tip-on jacket with printed inner sleeve featuring new liner notes by Rob Bowman, Grammy® Award winning author of Soulsville .: The Story of Stax Records.
