Spirit Of The Street is the 1981 Album, released by soul super-group Madagascar on the Arista label.
In the early 80’s was not the most favourable time to be a soul band. Or young and talented without a care of the evils of the world… but this one album remains as a very collectable addition in the history of soul music.
The album sounded like no one else out there, at the time, and the album's forth single “Baby Not Tonight" which became a lush, gorgeous ballad. The notable track on the album was the song 'Rainbow', with Marva King and John Barnes taking the leads, became a song highly popular in the U.K.
“Baby Not Tonight” and “Rainbow” became the only singles of the album to chart, as both were placed highly on the US R&B Chart in 1981 and 1982 respectively.
Check Madagascar out for yourself and if anything, "Rainbow" remains indicative of the route they might have taken…. FTG
