Charles Wright & the Watts 103rd Street Rhythm Band: Express Yourself!

This is the story most funk histories leave out. Before Parliament, before the Meters, and simultaneously with James Brown and Dyke Christian, Charles Wright & the Watts 103rd Street Rhythm Band were shaping a deep, street-rooted version of funk right on the West Coast. From cotton fields in Mississippi to Los Angeles clubs in the early nineteen sixties, this band grew up alongside the rise of funk and helped define a groove that was hypnotic, soulful, and undeniable. In this video we walk that timeline with dates and context you won’t find in other videos. We explore Charles Wright’s early life, his move to L.A., his time with vocal groups, the Wright Sounds, the Watts 103rd Street Rhythm Band, and how records like Do Your Thing, Love Land, One Lie Leads to Another, and the classic Express Yourself fit into the larger funk story. We also break down Express Yourself groove-by-groove and explain how their sound was different from everything else happening at the time. You’ll see how Dyke Christian tried to bring Charles into Funky Broadway, why Soul Train only booked records that moved bodies, and how the Watts band not only charted but influenced the music that came after it. If you’ve ever wondered where funk came from, how its parts fit together, and why Charles Wright deserves a spot in that conversation, this deep dive is for you.
