Description:

Renowned for its enviable combination of musical muscle and malleability, guitar- ist/songwriter Raymond Alexander Jenkinsâ?? tight four-piece unit was so revered on the uptown club circuit that it was offered the opportunity to serve as the Apollo Theater house band. Jenkins demurred, hopeful and confident in his groupÃs chances at making it on its own, and Letâ??s Talk is the sublime result of their hard work. Independently released and recorded with a distinctly lo-fi charm, it is a collection of unabashedly sincere songs that perfectly encapsulates the eraâ??s heady milieu of Black pride and cultural awareness, and the plaintive emotion of struggling to realize dreams whilst navigating a city and neighborhood in decline. Personal tragedy coupled with Jenkinsâ?? inability to gain traction as a musician, would haunt him for years. But Letâ??s Talkâ??s reputation would eventually spread via word-of-mouth praise amongst soul and funk connoisseurs and record collectors. Now elevated to exalted status, it may finally be more widely appreciated as a testament to Jenkinsâ?? gifts. The main album is augmented by two songs by Ray Alexander Technique with Chris Bartley, not available on the original album. -
