Blair  - Nightlife

  • Blair

    Nightlife LP (1978)

    Solar Sound Records & Tapes

Late 70s Disco / Jazz / Funk / Soul Fusion, whatever you want to call it, from original Blackbyrds guitarist Barney "Blair" Perry.  Perry was only with the group for their first two albums penning their hit "Walking in Rhythm".  By 1978, he released this lone solo gem that would go unappreciated until the 90s rare groove scene embraced it. The title cut is midtempo disco funk goodness that has topped quite a few lists here on the Strut. The album has yet to get the reissue treatment, so expect some sticker shock if you are looking for an original copy.
