Oh, House of Soul.

Right here on Black Horizons.

And with me as the manager of House of Soul, Steve Chatman.

How are you doing, man?

I mean, y'all sound so good.

I had to put my dancing shoes on, I know.

Yeah, Am I ready?

Okay.

I'm ready to go, man.

I can remember.

It must have been 1993 when we were talking about, the group, and you said, man, I gotta get them on Black Horizons.

Got to get them on Black Horizons.

I would come over to Kingsley, where you work and see other groups.

We get them on, and somehow we finally got to it.

And so, I'm really glad that we did, man.

Tell me about the music.

This 70s soul is still going strong.

I mean, I kept my shoes and there were some money too.

You think I get some money?

No, you could get some.

But, you know, it's just wonderful to get a chance to come on your show.

I feel like we're on American Bandstand.

It's the black Dick Clark.

You see the look at everything, but, for old rascal, I don't look too bad.

With the shoes, you know, get the weight that.

Get them off my feet.

Starter Hurry now, man, I'm telling you.

But tell me about the music, man.

70s soul is alive.

It definitely is.

I mean, you look at the top producers.

Even though puffy got shut out, everything from the 70s is being redone.

Just add new vocals, new lyrics to it, and it's like recreating.

If you put a whole bunch of Michael Jordan's on a basketball team, you're going to win.

So that's what they're doing.

The music.

What we have here is, especially with the horns and the live instrumentation, is a recreation of what was big in the 70s, and everybody is reminiscing about the good times before the babies, before the child support for all that.

You was happy.

Yeah.

Well, that government cheese we you nasty.

Let's introduce the group.

Let's start over here with the, trombone player.

Who is that?

Okay.

Carl King.
