Lyrics:
I’m back for more oh
You’ve got a certain something I’m looking for
I’m back for more oh
You’ve got that j’nais sais quoi baby I can’t ignore

Warm night
Cold sheets
Wheels still turning fast
So tired can’t sleep
‘Cause you’re running through my memory
Baby

Ooh I tried to quit for a minute
But it didn’t change my mood
Ooh I’m running back to your lovin’
Because nothing feels this good

I’m back for more oh
You’ve got a certain something I’m looking for
I’m back for more oh
You’ve got that j’nais sais quoi baby I can’t ignore

Outside up tight
Moving through the city lights
Drinks at the Capri
Don’t feel right without you next to me
Baby

Cole, etc., Tuxedo released their debut album and quickly became a world of its own.

Lyrics:
Baby if you wanna ride
We can cruise into the late night
Start me up, you know you’ve got the key
Ooh come on and take a ride with me

Easy glide on the Alpine
Ice bucket with the red wine
Hit the Hawthorne Hotline
And I’ll be on the way, girl

It’s a date
Top down PCH
Tell your momma you’ll be out late
20 bands in the Gucci crate

If you place your bets on me
Guaranteed that it’s gonna pay, girl
Woah don’t you know
Jump in the passenger seat
And take a ride around my way, girl
Come on take a trip with me

Baby if you wanna ride
We can cruise around the East side
Start me up, you know you’ve got the key
Ooh come on and take a ride with me

Trying to front you can’t fool me
Sip the Erewhon smoothie
If you’re trying to make a movie
Then I’ll be on the way, girl

It’s a date
Top down PCH
Tell your momma you’ll be out late
Baby bounce, rock, rollerskate
If you place your bets on me
Guaranteed that it’s gonna pay, girl
Woah don’t you know
Jump in the passenger seat
And take a ride around my way, girl
Come on take a trip with me

Baby if you wanna ride
We can cruise into the late night
Start me up, you know you’ve got the key
Ooh come on and take a ride with me
Baby if you wanna ride
We can cruise around the East side
Start me up, you know you’ve got the key
Ooh come on and take a ride with me

Got to roll the windows down

You hear the sound that’s coming out the trunk
Got to roll the windows down
Let ‘em know
It’s that Tuxedo on your stereo
Ho!

Ay ay ayy
Bend a corner with me, babe

Lyrics:
Ooh baby
This time I think we made it
Let’s celebrate now because
Ooh baby
This time I think we made it
You and me

Long time ago
We were rolling down that bumpy road
You never gave up on me
Now we’re bringing home that diamond ring

Well we took a couple Ls along the way
All the love we found
Through the ups and downs
And we’re here to stay

Ooh baby
This time I think we made it
Let’s celebrate now because
Ooh baby
This time I think we made it
You and me

Love’s fantasy
Strolling through the vines of Tuscany
We used to sit up in the balcony
Now we’re touching wood at MSG

Well we took a couple Ls along the way
All the love we found
Through the ups and downs
And we’re here to stay

Hil St Soul - "For Your Love"

Night's Over

Tortured Soul's TSTC Records presents "Choice Cuts," a compilation of timeless classics from Cooly's Hot Box!

Formed in New York City's thriving acid jazz scene during the 1990s by Tortured Soul's lead singer and drummer, John-Christian Urich, and renown soul singer Angela Johnson, Cooly's Hot Box burst onto the scene with with "Don't Throw My Love Around," featured on the first Giant Steps compilation released by London's Downtown Records.  The song was later sampled for the main riff in Armand Van Helden's "Funk Phenomena," which rose to #1 on the Canadanian RPM Dance Chart and #38 on the UK Singles Chart in 1996.  The band soon found themselves opening for the likes of B.B. King, A Tribe Called Quest, Zapp, The Neville Brothers, Guru, and India.Arie.  After a series of singles and remixes, Cooly's Hot Box released two full-length albums, "Take It," and "Don't Be Afraid: Get On," to audience and critic rave reviews.

Cooly's Hot Box formed the launch pad for the careers of Urich and Johnson, with Urich going on to form seminal live house act, Tortured Soul, and working with producers like Roger Sanchez and DJ Spinna and performing many hundreds of concerts worldwide.  Johnson has since enjoyed international success as a solo artist and composer, releasing several albums and singles, and writing chart-topping hits for artists like Double (Japan).

If you've never heard Cooly's Hot Box before, or if you've misplaced your original vinyl, TSTC Records has your back.  Here are 14 Choice Cuts, culled from the albums and singles of Cooly's catalog, re-released in their original sheen for your listening pleasure!
