Title: Classic Story-telling...Soul Opera at it's best.
Review: My father first let me hear this album when I was about 15 years old. It just so happens he had it on wax with all the snap crackle and pop on it. Considering I was into Isaac Hayes, I really got into the story behind the album. David Porter takes the listeners through his heart-felt love story of a man in love with another man's woman. This album preceeded all the skits that have become popular in most rap albums. If you listen to "The Masquerade is Over" you can hear where rappers such as LL Cool J, The RZA, Biggie Smalls (Who shot ya) and Prince Paul all sampled Porter's Memphis String's sound. For all the Stax sounds fans, this is a must have. Trust a 24 year old funk fan...it's a classic!
