The Pointer Sisters and Taj Mahal's debuts both shared the same producer: David Rubinson. Taj Mahal came to prominence as a member of the LA-area blues band Rising Sons. The interracial band didn't end up getting very far despite critical acclaim, but it laid the groundwork for his debut Taj Mahal released in 1968 on Columbia Records.
Here is the discography surrounding Taj Mahal's debut album:
