Action Speaks Louder Than Worlds

Recorded in New Orleans by Chocolate Milk during the sessions for the group's third album. The band worked with producer Allen Toussaint and the core lineup of David Batiste, Robert Blair, Joseph 'Blue' Williams, Charles Brown and Teddy Royal. Released as the title track of the group's breakthrough album, it showcased Chocolate Milk's blend of tight funk rhythms, socially conscious lyrics and New Orleans musicianship. The record helped establish the band as one of the leading funk acts on the RCA roster. The track became a staple of 1970s funk and remains the group's signature recording. Its drum breaks, bass lines and horn arrangements have been sampled by numerous hip-hop producers and DJs.
