RSD 2022. The album from Home Boy And The C.O.L. is Cecil Lyde's self-titled debut under the `Home Boy' moniker and was released in 1982 on his own label Alwest Records. He is backed by a cast of all-star players that includes John Stephens (Miles Davis, Stevie Wonder), Fred Brown (Gwen McCrae), Rommel Sinclair (Fred Wesley), Gary Bell (Lionel Hampton), Carl Lockett (Pharoah Sanders, Chuck Mangione) and Terry Carter (Swamp Dogg). These ten songs contain high doses of funky twerks, solid grooves, crazy synth work, excellent drumbeats and Cecil's soulful doo-wop influenced vocals. Tidal Waves Music presents a reissue on 180 gram vinyl, limited to 1500 copies with obi strip and features the original artwork.
