THE POCKETS were a group from Baltimore who moved to Los Angeles in the mid seventies. Once established in the city of Angels, they had the good fortune of an association with Earth, Wind And Fire.
They signed with Columbia Records, the musical home of Earth, Wind And Fire, and released their debut album Come Go With Us in 1977, which immediately created interest on the soul scene and included 'Come Go With Me' and 'Pasado'.
Working closely with Maurice and Verdine White (EWF), they consolidated on their initial success with another highly acclaimed album Take It On Up in 1978. Once again the album found favour with soul fans and contained many superb tracks, including 'Heaven Only Knows', 'Happy For Love' and 'Tell Me Why'.
The group later signed directly to Maurice White's ARC label for their final album So Delicious, which although not as strong as their previous material, still included the soulful title track, 'How Do You Think It Feels' and the disco-oriented 'Catch Me'.
