The Winstons were an American 1960s funk and soul music group, based in Washington, D.C., United States. They are known for their 1969 recording of an EP featuring a song entitled "Color Him Father" on the A-side, and "Amen, Brother" on the B-side. Half-way into "Amen, Brother", there is a drum solo (performed by G.C. Coleman) which would cause The Winston's EP to become one of the most widely-sampled records in the history of electronic music. Sampled audio clips of the drum solo became known as the Amen Break, which has been used in thousands of tracks in a large number of musical genres, including drum and bass, hip hop, jungle, big beat, industrial and electronica. The "Color Him Father" record sold over one million copies, and received a gold record awarded by the Recording Industry Association of America on 24 July 1969. It also won a Grammy Award for the Best Rhythm and Blues Song (1969).〔 ==Members== The Winstons line-up included:〔 *Richard Lewis Spencer (tenor saxophone, lead vocals) *Ray Maritano (alto saxophone, backing vocals) *Quincy Mattison (guitar, backing vocals) *Phil Tolotta (organ, co-lead vocals) *Sonny Pekerol, J.Lee Zane (bass guitar, backing vocals) *Gregory C.
