The Undisputed Truth

1971
Gordy

The second album released in 1971 by The Undisputed Truth featuring their first big hit, the brooding ‘Smiling Faces Sometimes,’ a song perfectly in tune with early seventies paranoid Nixon-era America. Likewise, their near eleven minute take on ‘Ball Of Confusion’ with its effects-laden vocals and fuzz guitar wig outs all sitting on a simple, solid three note bassline has a dark and introspective feel to it. The band also turn in a clutch of cover versions and hippie-soul including an edgy take on ‘Aquarius’ and they even manage to find the melancholy within the cheery ‘California Soul.’
