Description: A dramatic tribute to Andromeda Shun, featuring the legendary Bronze Saint surrounded by celestial imagery, powerful armor details, chains, and intense cosmic energy. The vivid cyan, red, and black palette gives this character artwork a bold retro anime poster aesthetic.
Description: In the mid-1970s, the seven musicians formed a new band, calling themselves "Con-Funk-Shun", after a song by the instrumental ensemble the Nite-Liters. They relocated to Memphis, Tennessee in 1973 when they were hired to back up Stax Records artists the Soul Children. There, they came to the attention of Estelle Axton who signed them to her Fretone Records label, where they released 2 singles. Their début album, Organized Con Funk Shun, was recorded in 1973 but remained unreleased until 1978. (More Memphis Sessions from this era remained unreleased until 1980.) In 1975 the band’s name was altered from "Confunkshun" to "Con Funk Shun" by Louis’ wife Linda Lou McCall who also handled the marketing and public relations.
