More Aleem's History

1974 saw the twins release 'Ostrich' on Spring records under the moniker 'US'. Featuring Neftali Santiago of Mandrill on drums. He also played on their 'Prana People' LP. Whilst the twins hadn't yet changed their names, they had already established their West Kenya publishing company, and started working with Earl 'The Pearl' Monroe (the 4 time NBA All-Star) - who went on to found Pretty Pearl Records.
