[@timmccoyjr.9029]

I actually had a music teacher who was from the chamber family

[@Mr.bandman313]

Not all chambers are bad people. Thanks !

[@endoalley680]

I liked their music.

[@MrWisdomseekr]

You have the wrong Chambers Brothers.

[@endoalley680]

@@MrWisdomseekr Didn't they sing "TIME"? And now we know the rest of the story.

[@MrWisdomseekr]

@@endoalley680 The Chambers Brothers singing group sang "Love, Peace, and Happiness", and "Time Has Come Today", and other songs. I remember getting their album in 1973. The Detroit Chambers Brothers started getting into crime in the 1970s. The Detroit Chambers Brothers are from Arkansas and went to Detroit. The music group Chambers Brothers are from Mississippi and moved to LA to do their music.

[@wiseandblessed6389]

Man you got the story wrong. BJ was getting weed from Tim, and he introduces him to his nephew Twin. Once BJ got with Twin that's when BJ really started getting money. In BJ book he says It was Twin who really showed me and gave me the plug on getting money. I hate when these storues about the Legends of the D is wrong. I can tell you so much about so many people from those days, because my cousin is Twin and my uncle is Tim. I'm going to write a book called The Bible of The Streets. To tell the truth that I know about the hustlers on the Eastside.

[@B-Killin]

With roots in Arkansas, were they getting the coke from all of the cocaine being flown into Mena Arkansas at the time through Barry Seal’s channel in the late 80’s?

[@TheAquaMammal]

I thought this was about the "Time Has Come Today" Chambers Brothers.

[@gregmatherne7173]

Having 44 acres of land doesn't sound so impoverished!

[@maskedman1337]

The narration said the TOWN was impoverished.

[@josephbuehl9429]

Yeah I hear you brother

[@thelog86]

If its 44 acres of contaminated wasteland or swamps its worth absolutely nothing. In the south if the land was worth amything do you think white people in the 40s would have let them keep it

[@BigA-trucking]

Your not the sharpest tool in the shed are ya…ignorance is why there’s still racism 🤡

[@reellife80]

Depends on where the 44 acres is

They were stupid for how they got caught.

[@coreypatterson1007]

Any way you get caught mostly likely. Dumb!!

[@Mr.bandman313]

The videos were training videos for kids coming from Arkansas. Yes it was not a smart move but it was a genius marketing move for kids In Arkansas who had never seen this type of money or behavior. No differently then being trained on your first day in a ford motor plant !

No the Chambers Brothers band was at it's peak late 60s/early 70s and from LA (not even one of the many Detroit Motown groups. Completely different people.)

Once? For how long? All over the state? Hot Springs was well visited by AL Capone and other big shots (even today). Was once stomping ground of another wheeler dealer named William Clinton.

[@toddgoza3522]

But they didn’t have weight, had to cop it!

[@thelog86]

They were grinders. Which is how u make the most money but take the highest risk. When they started crack technically wasnt illegal yet. When tested it would come back negative so they would not get charged. Thats how they got away with it so long
