Survival Research present a reissue of
West Coast Revival
's self-titled album, originally released in 1977. Seattle-born preacher's son
Luther James Rabb
played sax with
Jimi Hendrix
in the
Velvetones
and after forming popular horns-based rock act
Ballin' Jack
, moved to Los Angeles, where soul harmony trio West Coast Revival was born. Early singles for United Artists were produced by
Howard Scott
and
Lonnie Jordan
of
War
, and their sole LP, released in 1977, is an exceedingly rare soul-funk gem, with solid vocal harmony, hard funk breaks, and a touch of sophisticated strings. "My Mind Is At Ease" is a breakbeat special and "Feelin' Allright" rides a meaty bass groove, both underlining the War connection. Survival Research's edition comes with bonus love song "Beautiful Girl", an early single B-side. Overall, this is prime soul-funk with uncommon elements, ripe for rediscovery by all discerning funk fans.
