TOPS & TROUSERS MONTH- Your jeans they fit so tight, the camera takes all of you In my darkroom turn out the light . There basically was 2 periods for SLAVE.....the 1st three albums contained extremely hard hitting, edgy & dark funk. The 2nd period is when vocalist Steve Arrington joined the band . Unlike a group like Kool & The Gang,Slave added a standout vocalist,while still retaining much of their edginess. Even in songs like Watching You & Touch of love......its right there under the surface. At least part of this, was the fact that Arrington was perhaps the most unconventional singer of all the funk bands to come out of the 70s. Long elastic runs, where you just had no idea where they would end up. LOL I remember thinking that the cat was going out of key (upon 1st hearing him),but then realizing he was taking it right to the edge of being out,but would land on his feet. Extremely daring. & for this Slave always stands out among what I call the 2nd tier funk bands. This is a great example of his vocal prowess,
