Doug Carn
Adam’s Apple
Real Gone Music 1297 on limited orange with black swirl vinyl

Doug Carn made four records for the Black Jazz label, more than any other artist, and each one topped the previous releases lofty standard. Adams Apple was his last (1974) album for the label, representing the final note in his staggeringly creative crescendo. It was also the first record without Jean Carn, but Carn and crew (John Conner and Joyce Greene) dont miss a beat on the vocals. And the band is absolutely sick, featuring reedman Ronnie Laws and fellow Black Jazz recording artist Calvin Keys on guitar, and led by Carns increasingly electronic forays on various keyboards. The result is a record that brings to mind Herbie Hancocks Headhunters, electric Miles, maybe even Earth, Wind, and Fire (Carn covers EW&Fs Mighty Mighty), but all overlaid with an uplifting gospel vibe. To quote Pat Thomas liner notes (which feature extensive quotes from Doug Carn himself), Adams Apple is more energetic, funky, and futuristic than Carns earlier Black Jazz work. In short, sublime. Newly remastered and available on orange with black streaks vinyl limited to 750 copies and exclusive to independent record stores.
