Description
Brief Encounter is a nine-piece soul/funk group centered around the four Bailey brothers from North Carolina. Between 1973 and 1981, they released two albums and several singles. Their most popular track, "Human," is featured on the B-side of this 1977 single, now reissued on clear orange vinyl with a paper sleeve. Also famous as a sample in a song by a certain Japanese rap group, "Human" is a modern soul masterpiece that opens with an instantly recognizable intro before unfolding a melancholic melody and falsetto vocals at a laid-back tempo of just over 90 BPM. The A-side ballad "Total Satisfaction," with its sophisticated sound and poignant vocals and harmonies, is equally irresistible. Original Sound Plus pressings now fetch over 50,000 yen! One for every household!
