Marvin Holmes was one of the major movers and shakers of Bay area soul and funk through the 60s and 70s, recording with the Uptights, Justice, and under his own name. He recorded 45s for a number of different labels including Revue, Brown Door, Uni, Kon-Kord, and Boola Boola.

'You Better Keep Her' is a 70s shuffler first played at Blackpool Mecca from initial release.  The track was taken from their second LP on Brown Door 'Honor Thy Father', the first LP being 'Summer of '73'.  

He also recorded an album 'Ooh Ooh The Dragon & Other Monsters' as Marvin Holmes & The Uptights in 1969 on Uni.

Most of his other stuff with Justice is early 70s funk but this flip of 'Tell The Truth' and the title track off the LP of the same name is worthy of posting - a sort of early jazz/funk instrumental groover.
