Earl King – Sexual Telepathy – Vinyl Record

Sexual Telepathy is an album by the American blues musician Earl King, released in 1990. Earl King was known for his contributions to the New Orleans blues scene and his influential songwriting in the blues genre.

Key tracks from Sexual Telepathy include ‘Love Is the Way of Life,’ ‘M.C. Boogie,’ and ‘Mama and Papa.’ The album reflects Earl King’s distinctive blend of blues, R&B, and funk, characterized by his soulful vocals and guitar playing.

Reunited with a more sympathetic New Orleans rhythm section (bassist George Porter, Jr., and drummer Kenny Blevins) and a funkier horn section, King excelled handsomely on this uncommonly strong outing. As we’ve come to expect from him, he brought a sheaf of new originals to the sessions, from a saucy ‘Sexual Telepathy’ to a heartwarming ‘Happy Little Nobody’s Waggy Tail Dog.’ Remakes of his ‘Always a First Time’ and ‘A Weary Silent Night’ were welcome inclusions (especially since we can’t easily lay our hands on the originals!).

Earl King’s music has been appreciated by fans of blues and R&B music, and his songwriting has left a lasting impact on the genre. While he may not be as widely recognized as some other blues legends, his contributions to the New Orleans blues tradition are significant.

Sexual Telepathy is a representation of Earl King’s musical style and is a part of the broader legacy of blues music. It remains a notable release in his discography and is valued by those who appreciate the blues in its various forms.
