Next up in our House of Soul Essentials Series...

Remember that Tropical delight of a B side, “These Lonely Nights”, from that dynamically dynamite Bob & Gene picture sleeve 45? Well, it’s BACK!

With this record, The Como Mamas join forces with the boys of Menahan Street Band (billed pseudonymously here as The Radiant Rhythm Band) to lay bare the funkier side of gospel music. 

“The rhythms we all play were already right there in their vocals,” explains drummer Homer Steinweiss, “so it felt natural to lay down the grooves behind them.” Thomas “T-N-T” Brenneck, the up-and-coming producer who brought us both Menahan Street Band and Charles Bradley, presided over the collaboration, which took place in the old Dunham Studio in Williamsburg, Brooklyn.

In honor of Nujabes.

We're just dreamers/
nothing short of believers/
got this under control, no need to leave it to beaver/
don't be so eager, we still got so long to go/
hell nah we ain't hittin the steamers/
I'm the icing on cake, you can be the coffee I'll be the creamer/
never roll fake, ain't nobody realer/
my mission to succeed commissioned like car dealer/
my face on all of your Trix, cereal killer/
the music turn my brain on, sex appealer/
rhyme and flow, words graze over her curves, no need to feel her/
game of love, shuffle the cards, I'll be the dealer/
gift from above, every kick of the bass, now I can feel her/
hollow ears, let that riff be the filler/
dissect the rhythm, onion layered gotta peel her/
haven't met anyone yet that could be chiller/
kick back relax let the funk be the healer/
mental inspiration, God has delivered/
dental sanitation, verbal spit cleana than the Lena River/
don't need no ice to be cool, I'll make you shiver/
tower over my enemies as they shake and quiver/
musical flow cleanse my body, don't need a liver/
leather in black, hair greased back, nobody slicker/
ahead of the game, catch up need to be quicker/
i'll see you at the finishline where i'll be maxin out like ahh/

Take a step back and envision the world/
as it solely rotates 'round gold diamond and pearls/
these fluorescent adolescents screamin' "Free Earl!"/
'till they fall, kill 'em all like "F the free world"/
true beauty of a land with metaphorical music/
minds are levitated and with precision we use it/
floating through a sea of thoughtful similes/
out the speakers to the hearts the music's the remedy/
conquest the left chest maintain your liberty/
lips graze quotations, arming the weaponry/
only thing in rotation is the knowledge, see/
a compound so volatile, delicate chemistry/
tempted by society to eat the fruit of the tree/
my soul never dance with the devil that I guarantee/

LISTEN.
Now take a step forward and back into perspective/
mind body and soul infuse as a collective/
respecting the spectrum not rather selective/
doper than your dope so ya'll got to check this/
a panacea of tunes get you out the slump/
hanging on a thread so my flow is what you'll bump/
this Beat Laments The World, feelin light as a Feather/
out Counting Stars with you there's nothing better/
let's just spend A Day By Atmosphere Supreme/
get into my ozone layer know what I mean/
First In Last Out, you know that I'm a fiend/
rollin' through like the 112, peaches and cream/
wear the crown when you're around me my Lady Brown/
diggin' through dirt for quality that's underground/
learning to Think Different with ideas Substantial/
from Highs 2 Lows it's for the love, not financial/
cat with the savage flow call him Juno/
sicker than your Average Joe, I let it glow/
the Latitude I maintain reps my gratitude/
Light On The Land, shining positive attitude/
and you know we stay Blessing It/
beatrock we wreckin' it/
but ever since you've gone, the space you've been fittin' in/
seemed a little empty, I fill it up quick/
Nujabes rest in beats, i'm musically Luv Sic./

Perception Productions, a New York based label that ran from the late 60s through until 1974, was a strangely eclectic affair. Its roster stretched from a radical Afro-American poet through to the pop band King Harvest whose hit ‘Dancing In The Moonlight’ became a massive hit for the UK band Toploader a couple of decades later. The inbetween points covered jazz, funk, vocal harmony soul and proto-disco. In fact distilled down into this compilation the label provides us a view of Manhattan’s black music scene of the period, from the established greats to the fresh young things who would make their mark in the coming years. The two men who ran the label, President Terry Phillips and Boo Frazier burned brightly for that half a decade before almost entirely disappearing from the music scene.

Dark, triumphant and mysterious; the new Menahan Street band 45 single "Light's Out" conjures images of hard-fighting pugilists battling it out under a bare bulb, of a matador's graceful execution of a lumbering bull, of sweat, romance and victory.  Brought in by a rollicking, almost tipsy, Hammond melody and backed by a smoky smooth guitar line, “Keep Coming Back” eventually erupts into a swanky nightlife anthem, complete with red velvet curtains and a garnished highball.
