Classic album of the Day: Lou Bond “Light In The Attic”. “Light In The Attic” is the ultimate title for this enigmatic soul release from the Memphis, TN based artist Lou Bond. The title is appropriate because the album is more likely to be found in the attict of an avid music collecter than anywhere else in the world. The album was released on the We Produced label, an imprint of Memphis based label Stax Records. The album was written flawlessy, incorporating invigorating social commentary about the struggles of the early 1970s and soulful love songs. He was also musically backed by Memphis’s Symphony String Orchestra and The Horns of South Memphis, not mention some excellent bass players who just accentuated each record, just see the albums standout record “To The Establishent” which has been sampled by OutKast (“Wailin”), Mary J. Blige (“Free”) and recently Starlito (“Alright”). Also, “That’s The Way I’ve Always Heard It Should Be” is my favorite love ballad on the album. 1970s southern soul at his finest.
