Notes
2010 release by the underground Soul/Funk outfit. The Outsiders Are Back finds the band creating it's own immediately identifiable sound from a broad palette of classic R&B (mid-'60's Chicago, early-'70's Philadelphia, and other sources far more obscure); setting that sound to Black Wolf's timeless lyrics of love and loss, despair and hope and delivering it all with fierce urgency and undeniable emotional commitment. There is power in Kings Go Forth's multi-ethnic makeup, in their 25 year age span (from 30 to 55), and in their unforced command of the Soul music idiom. And to date, the Soul revival has not produced another band with a vocal blend so rich in tone and feeling.
