Heart-Soul And Inspiration – S/T [1974 Waterbed soul] – New LP

Reissue of 1974 album, pure waterbed soul with Johnny Otis looking over the proceedings, the band taking Barry White and making it even more explicitly sexual! "Clocking in at an epic eleven minutes, Vince Howard’s “I’m Gonna Love You More” is a tantric reimagining of Barry White’s 1973 top ten sex classic. Where White was content delivering a subtle and syrupy innuendo, L.A. drummer, band leader, and producer Vince Howard transforms the break-heavy track into a meandering fuck/funk workout. From “sliding off your pinkies” to Marsha Sims’ playful moans, Howard keeps the groove going until his roping climax at the nine minute mark before asking to 'hold onto me for a while. Keep it wrapped up just like you got me.' Howard's Heart-Soul & Inspiration Orchestra cut their only album in 1974 for John Springs’ Los Angeles-based Viscojon concern under the watchful eye of R&B godfather Johnny Otis."
