About this product

When the Staples Jr. Singers, the little-known family band from Aberdeen, Mississippi originally released their first and only full-length album, 1975's When Do We Get Paid (Luaka Bop, 2022), they made a handful of copies themselves, which they sold at talent shows and to their neighbors on their front lawn. One of the most striking features of this record was the cover-prayers hands set against a gleaming, divine gold. We never saw a real album in the flesh when we made our version, and when we got the scans of the cover, the gold had washed out to white. So now, for the first time since it's original When Do We Get Paid will once more have a gold cover. Who are the Staples Jr. Singers, and why do they share a name with that other gospel group you might have heard of, the ones who famously crossed over? The musical family behind the Jr. Singers, the Browns, were a part of a vanguard of gospel soul artists in the 1970s who broke from tradition to testify with the groove. Excited audiences would flock to them after shows, telling them, InchY'all sound like the Staple Singers, y'all should call yourselves the little Staple Jr. Singers!Inch And so they did. When they wrote these songs - all of them stone cold soul - they were teenagers, and they had one question on their minds When Do We Get Paid? You don't have to take our word for how great this record is. Take the Guardian's instead, which calls it Inchpowerful.Inch Or the Times', which calls it Inchfull of feeling,Inch or Popmatters' (9/10) which says it's Incha recording of fragile beauty and turbulent groove.Inch Amen.1. Get On Board2. I Know You're Going to Miss Me3. I'm Looking For A Man4. I'm Going To A City5. Somebody Save Me6. Trouble of the World 7. Waiting For The Trumpet To Sound 8. I Feel Good9.

Cardinal Black - Midnight At The Valencia   - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

2025 . InchThe Valencia is the physical manifestation of our 'ten thousand hours', representing every backwater dive-bar and neon-soaked club we've walked into and played together as friends. A lot has happened in the miles and years we've covered together. Midnight at The Valencia is an honest account of some of the highs and lows we encountered and the stories we found along the way 'Ride Home' unfolds a portrait of a boy we watched going off to war, only to see him return later a man; 'Adeline' is a melancholy love letter from a father to his daughter; 'Morning Light' follows a family man as he tries to rebuild his life after a divorce; 'Breathe' chronicles a tryst between illicit lovers fighting to slip the stranglehold of failing relationships; 'Push/Pull' is that plaintive rite of passage through loss and grief we all have to navigate; 'Keep on Running' is a cautionary tale of a friend's brush with the unsolicited attentions of a stalker; and if 'Holding my Breath' is a confession to a partner of feeling trapped in a relationship, 'Your Spark' is the counterpoint finale a thank you from one of us to his wife. Here at The Valencia, we're inviting the listener to 'spend the night' with us, to bring their own stories and find themselves in some of ours. To laugh, cry, dance and raise a glass to the past together, before we each turn to our next chapters...Inch
