Bar‐Kays - Light Of Life (1978) & Injoy (1979) [2013, Remastered Reissue]

Posted By: BlondStyle

Cherry Red's Robinsongs division combines a pair of late-'70s Mercury albums by the Bar-Kays: 1978's "Light of Life" and 1979's "Injoy". Given the band's extensive discography (including a Stax-released 1978 album with an incredible re-recording of "Holy Ghost"), these releases have fallen by the wayside, but both of them fared well. The former reached #15 on Billboard's album chart, while the latter missed the top spot by one position. There's a handful of notable singles and deep album cuts, including the charting A-sides "Shine" and "I'll Dance," as well as "Move Your Boogie Body" and the ballad "Running in and Out of My Life."

~Review by Andy Kellman

Light of Life contains the singles Shine (Top 20 U.S. R&B) b/w Are You Being Real which was later flipped to the A side and I ll Dance (Top 30 U.S. R&B). Injoy the bands most successful album which was certified Gold featured the Top 3 R&B single Move Your Boogie Body and the Top 20 R&B single Today Is The Day . Other stand out cuts are I Lean On You / You Lean On Me and Running In And Out Of My Life . The Bar-Kays were formed in 1966 in Memphis Tennessee after meeting as session musicians for Stax Records. Members of the original line up tragically died in the plane crash that killed soul legend Otis Redding, who were employed as his backing band. The remoulded group went on to have success on the Mercury label from 1976 through 1987 including the albums Too Hot To Stop & Flying High On Your Love which are also available on the Cherry Red label SuperBird.
