An ultra-rare funky, blues inflected soul single from vocalist and songwriter Leon Thomas - not to be confused with the free jazz singer popular in the late 1960s and 70s - this Leon Thomas is more akin to vocalists in the style of Otis Redding and Sam Cooke, but with a decidedly blues feel on top. Tonight b/w Leon's Blues, originally released in 1977 on the Bareback Records subsidiary Sunshine Records imprint features a playful, straight up funk groove with a blues harmonica added on the A side, while the soulful Leon's Blues is featured on the flip. This 45 appears to be the only recorded output from this artist, and he still remains a mystery to this day. Both tunes were written by Thomas and are featured here newly remastered.
