Young-Holt Unlimited (also known as Young-Holt Trio), were a U.S. soul and jazz instrumental musical ensemble from Chicago, Illinois, United States. Drummer Isaac "Red" Holt and bassist Eldee Young, formerly members of Ramsey Lewis' jazz trio, formed a new outfit called the Young-Holt Trio with pianist Don Walker in 1966. They met with modest success, including the minor hit with "Wack-Wack", which charted at number 40 on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100. In 1968, the group renamed itself Young-Holt Unlimited, and replaced Walker with Ken Chaney. Under their new name, the group scored a number three Hot 100 hit with "Soulful Strut," the backing instrumental track from Barbara Acklin's "Am I the Same Girl." "Soulful Strut" sold a million copies with the gold record awarded by the RIAA in January 1969, less than 3 months after the track's release. Follow-up releases failed to match the commercial success of "Soulful Strut", and the group disbanded by 1974, with Young and Holt continuing to play in Chicago small bands. Young died of a heart attack on February 12, 2007, in Bangkok, Thailand, at the age of 71. ==Albums discography== *1966: ''Wack Wack'' *1967: ''Feature Spot'' (as The Young Holt) *1967: ''The Beat Goes On'' *1967: ''On Stage'' *1968: ''Soulful Strut'' *1968: ''Funky But!'' *1968: ''Live at the Bohemian Caverns'' *1969: ''Just a Melody'' *1970: ''Mellow Dreamin'' *1971: ''Born Again'' *1973: ''Oh, Girl'' *1973: ''Young-Holt Unlimited Plays Super Fly'' 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Young-Holt Unlimited」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
