Oh My...

There had to be something in between Black Rock and the 80's...and this is it. And damn if it ain't downright FONKY. The Bar Kays knew what the time was. Wow.

I've been waiting for this album to get re-released for 20 years. This is the most downright dirty funk the Bar Kays ever did. This is the grail!!!

Top Soul and R&B

By eMusic Editorial Staff, eMusic Contributor

R&B is such an overwhelming genre. It lies at the heart of rock 'n 'roll and is somehow separate. It burns brighter, but can go dark. It shimmers and whinnies and roars. It's the sound of struggle and revolution, but also love and charity. Here is more than half a decade of an ever-changing and original American art form. Investigate for yourself. more »

They Say All Music Guide

One of the albums that the Bar-Kays cut for Stax in the early ’70s after they revamped the group following the disastrous late-’60s plane crash that killed all but two of the originals. The new lineup featured guitarist Lloyd Smith, drummer Michael Beard, vocalist John Colbert, trumpeter Charles Allen, saxophonist Havery Henderson, and others. This was classic Southern funk, with gospel-tinged vocals, energetic horn tracks, and lyrics that ranged from downhome musings to urban admonitions. – Ron Wynn
