Which American band produced the album 'Hot Streets' and whose founding member is praised for his Ray Charles-influenced vocal style?
Hot Streets Hot Streets is the tenth studio album (twelfth overall) by the American band Chicago, released in 1978. In many ways, "Hot Streets" marked the beginning of a new era for the band, turning to disco music, a move which would be derided in retrospect. It was also the band's first album with all-new material released since their second that didn't have a numbered title. It was also the first album not to feature original guitarist/vocalist Terry Kath, who died from an accidental self-inflicted gunshot wound in January 1978. He was replaced by Donnie Dacus on this album.
A Black Man's Soul A Black Man's Soul is an instrumental funk and soul album released by Ike Turner & The Kings of Rhythm in 1969 on Pompeii Records. The album was recorded while Turner was touring with then-wife Tina Turner during his free time. "A Black Man's Soul" exposed a side of Turner's music not as popular with his audiences of the time. While Turner's more popular tracks like "Proud Mary" relied heavily on vocal harmonies and popular soul influences, these tracks reflected a more traditional and simple funk popularized by acts such as Charles Wright & the Watts 103rd Street Rhythm Band, Baby Huey, The Bar-Kays and Brother Jack McDuff, among others.
