Politically charged, deeply introspective, and wonderfully lyrical, 1974’s Lou Bond is reminiscent of the \u003cstrong\u003eEugene McDaniels\u003c\/strong\u003e releases \u003cem\u003eHeadless Heroes of the Apocalypse\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eOutlaw\u003c\/em\u003e (both out previously on \u003cstrong\u003eReal Gone\u003c\/strong\u003e) in its outspoken, idiosyncratic social commentary. But there is a sensitivity here that’s devastating; Bond’s falsetto soaring over his strummed acoustic guitar brings to mind \u003cstrong\u003eBill Withers\u003c\/strong\u003e (whose “\u003cem\u003eLet Me into Your Life\u003c\/em\u003e” he covers) at his most affecting, while the orchestrated arrangements summon \u003cem\u003eWhat’s Going On\u003c\/em\u003e vibes. With comparisons like those, you know this record is special, but Lou Bond is a one-of-a-kind album that really defies comparison (despite our best efforts). \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor this ALL-ANALOG reissue, we had our friends at \u003cstrong\u003eWell Made Music\u003c\/strong\u003e cut lacquers directly from the original tapes, and pressed the record at \u003cstrong\u003eGotta Groove Records\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAvailable either in black vinyl or clear yellow. Both Outkast and Mary K.
