Eramus Hall

Eramus Hall is a Detroit-born R&B band associated with George Clinton, known for their tight, horn-driven funk sound. They gained recognition as a backing band for soul legends like Al Green and Betty LaVette. In 1977, they signed with Westbound/Atlantic and began working on their debut album, *Your Love Is My Desire*. However, due to label issues, the album wasn't released until 1980, and despite its potential, it didn't gain much traction at the time. The album features tracks like "Think Positively," "Feelin' Higher," and "Funk Permit," showcasing their versatility and connection to the funk scene of the late 1970s and early 1980s. *Your Love Is My Desire* has become a sought-after collector's item, with original vinyl copies commanding high prices. The album was reissued in 2024, offering a fresh listen to their unique blend of funk, soul, and R&B.

Eramus Hall's music reflects the influences of their time, with clear nods to Parliament-Funkadelic and other Westbound Records artists. Despite their brief commercial success, their music remains vibrant and engaging, appealing to fans of vintage funk and soul. The band's legacy is marked by their contribution to the rich musical heritage of Detroit and their association with prominent figures in the soul and funk genres.
