         - NOTES
         1978 saw the Bar-Kays continue across Light of Life all
         that they'd begun on the previous year's Flying High on
         Your Love. Debuting a new ten-member lineup, the group
         offered up a heady blend of classic funk spun with
         thoroughly contemporary disco ethics. The only drawback to
         the Bar-Kays' sound was that such a rapid-fire release
         schedule was rendering their unique sound a little samey.
         What worked beautifully across one LP was less unique
         across the next and, by the third, was nearing the point
         of overkill. That said, there are still many, many fine
         moments on Light of Life. Their balladeering skills were
         improving and are showcased magnificently on "We're the
         Happiest People in the World" and, of course, they
         absolutely sparkled across the funk-fests: the effusive
         "Get up 'N' Do It" and "Give It Up," which carries nods to
         both Hamilton Bohannon's "Disco Stomp" and the
         iconoclastic "Theme From Shaft." Rush-released to compete
         with Fantasy's cash-in Money Talks, compiled from the
         band's late Stax-era recordings, Light of Life faltered
         some in its wake. Nevertheless, Light of Life still gave
         the band their fourth Top 20 hit as "Shine," while "Are
         You Being Real" furthered their longevity on the singles
         chart.
         Another Quality Release from OSC!!
         Enjoy!!
