Rotary Connection was an American psychedelic soul band, formed in Chicago in 1966. The highly experimental band was the idea of Marshall Chess, son of Chess Records founder Leonard Chess. Marshall was the director behind a start-up label, Cadet Concept Records, and wanted to focus on music outside of the blues and rock genres, which had made the Chess label popular. This led Marshall to turn his attention to the burgeoning psychedelic movement. He recruited Charles Stepney (producer), a vibraphonist and classically-trained arranger and producer.
Marshall then recruited members of a little-known white rock band, the Proper Strangers: Bobby Simms, Mitch Aliotta, and Ken Venegas. Sidney Barnes, a songwriter within the Chess organization, also joined, as did Judy Hauff and a Chess receptionist named Minnie Riperton, who would later be successful in her own solo career. Marshall also called up prominent session musicians associated with the Chess label, including guitarist Phil Upchurch and drummer Morris Jennings
CareerThe band released their self-titled debut album in late 1967. It had various styles, borrowing heavily from pop, rock, and soul, but was not radio friendly. The album also boasted an Eastern influence through its use of the sitar on the tracks «Turn Me On» and «Memory Band». Stepney’s arrangements, brought to life by the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, imbued the album with a certain dreamlike quality; this would become a trademark of both the arranger and the mouthpiece. The album proved to be a modest success within the Midwest, but failed to make an impact nationally.

The guitar at 1:07 to 1:11 of Black Gold makes no sense at all but it sounds great. And I love the percussive strikes. Great song.

Today is the 64th Anniversary of Minnie Riperton's birth. Personally, I celebrate her artistry and humanity. I am glad that you passed our way and left us awesome music. Now, you are with our Heavenly Father singing praises to Him. You are truly missed, Minnie. Love Lives Forever. Brian

I found them a few years ago from a podcast that included I Am The Black Gold Of The Sun and fell in love with the track. But recently, I got "Hey, Love" on LP and I can't stop listening to it. "Love Has Fallen On Me" has become an all-time favorite.
