Dutch rare groove outfit
Reality were started in 1970 in Amsterdam by eight musicians from Surinam, Curaçao and Aruba as a funk band, of which Frankie Douglas (with FD Foundation) and keyboardist Glenn Gaddum (with GS Productions) are still very active in music. Singer Tony Sherman (often known as Renold Shearman) went back to Curaçao in the ’80’s. Their first untitled album was released that same year by Dureco on the Pink Elephant label and contains several strong instrumental funk jams, of which High Winds is a stand out, though Mack One and Gauchero are just as strong. Two years later, on their second album, the group was called Tony Sherman And Reality. In ‘73 Sherman went solo with another album, at which point the group Reality changed into Solat, another funky outfit, that only released a couple of singles and also recorded with Hans Dulfer as The Perikels.Great Pick though Schoolsy - Dissident Funk!!
