Description
SoulMusic Records is very proud to present “Prime Time: The Epic Anthology,� from the pioneering funk/R&B band Mtume, featuring the group’s eleven US charted singles including the classic, ‘Juicy Fruit’ along with selected album cuts from the team’s five Epic LPs as well as three bonus tracks from the sole solo album by female lead vocalist, Tawatha. •Formed by James Mtume and Reggie Lucas, two former members of the touring band for the legendary Miles Davis, the group known as Mtume emerged after the pair’s stint on the road and in the studio with Roberta Flack, who had recorded one of their songs, ‘The Closer I Get To You’ as a duet with Donny Hathaway. •Signed to Epic Records, the original line-up included other Flack alumni, drummer Howard King, bassist Basil Fearington, keyboardist Hubert Eaves III, with Reggie on guitar, Mtume on percussion, congas and lead vocals and Tawatha (who first began working with Mtume & Lucas a few years earlier) on lead and background vocals. •Included on this stellar anthology is a specially-sequenced ‘mini-opera’ drawn from tracks recorded for 1984’s “You, Me And He� LP, with the rare non-album cut ‘It’s Non-Functional’ making its CD debut along with the A&G mix of the 1986 charted single, ‘Breathless.’ Three tracks from Tawatha include the six-minute ‘Thigh High Mix’ of the single, ‘Thigh Ride.’ -
