Dynamic Corvettes

Funk band from eastern Maryland, USA. The Dynamic Corvettes played throughout Maryland including at the Starlight Club, Toys End, Warrens End, Club Paradise, Pomonkey High School, The Moon Light Inn, Sartiks, Lamonts, Benedict Pier, Willers Park, Green Acers and Marshall’s Corner Hall. Along the way they crossed paths with the Midnighters, King of Hearts, The Hounds, The Diamonds, the Van Dykes, Scacy and the Sound Service, The Soul Searchers, and the Continental Express.
In 1971 the Dynamic Corvettes recorded their first single, funky organ driven anti-drug song called “Keep of the Grass” on Baltimore’s Ru-Jac Records.
Ironically the lyrics of “Keep of the Grass” were misconstrued as pro-marijuana and the Dynamic Corvettes received some negative publicity. Undaunted, they returned to the recording studio—this time American Star Recording Studio in Falls Church, VA—in 1975 to record two 45s on the Nashboro Records imprint Abet, “Funky Music Is The Thing” and “Key to My Happiness.”
