Bloodstone was a funk / soul group formed in the 1960s in Kansas City, Missouri. Bloodstone was instrumental in the "black rock" and funk movement of the 1970's, and even had a hand in the brown-eyed soul movement with some Latin music-tinged hits.

Originally a high school doo-wop group, the members eventually moved to Los Angeles, California, learned to play instruments, and started a funk band. They became known for their funk / soul tracks that blended Jimi Hendrix-styled rock music with doo-wop and gospel music undertones. In 1973, Bloodstone's big label debut was an instant hit, with the single "Natural High" reaching the R&B Top Ten.
