If you can find a copy of the LP before "Too-Rye-Ay," called "Searching for the
Young Soul Rebels," grab it immediately. (It's been issued on CD at least
once.) My favorite record of 1980, period. Straight Memphis-ish soul with
bitingly nihilistic lyrics and (redemptively) hot Stax-style horn charts. I
can't speak to anything after "Too-Rye-Ay" (which I also like but not so much as
SftYSR), but most critical opinion I've seen says the dropoff was pretty steep.
