Along with other reissues for The Ultimates, The Topics and Ricardo Marrero, P-VINE has been steadily reissuing the hard-to-find funk and soul gems on the short-lived 70s label TSG, and this latest reissue for Spice's 1976 record Let There Be Spice is of no exception and is packed with seasoned heat. It's a record that complements and blurs the lines of soul, funk and disco, and was once so rare that not even the band knew of it's existence. Only in recent times have we been able to put together a picture of a group growing up in The Bronx with the burning desire to perform and light up the stage.Tracks like 'Everything Is You', 'Don't Fight It' and 'Fool In Love' are glorious examples of the heavenly soul sound the group construct with harmonizing waves of soothing vocals dancing together with warm string sections. 'Happy Music' and the following 'Do It Nice' up the tempo and show off another side to their sound as the songs twist and turn through proggy synthesizer solos and funk guitar rhythms. P-VINE can't wait to deliver this exciting release and keep the fire burning strong for this exceptional album.

A great, self-contained, soul music collective that never got their just due because of a spurious tax scam that was prevalent in the record industry in the early to mid-1970s - the group known as Spice, and their 1976 LP ""Let There Be Spice,"" remained in obscurity without members of the band even knowing that it was ever released until nearly 30 years after the fact. Now, thanks to the sharp ears of his internet savvy aging mother and subsequent interviews with Spice's leader Richard Brown Jr. - the full story of who this almost-forgotten band was, and what happened to them and why, is finally revealed. Whatever transpired business-wise should not obscure the quality of the music that resulted in the recording of this album. The performances are impeccable, the musicianship is top-notch, and the original songs in retrospect, were way ahead of their time. As a special treat for rare soul music lovers, this long-lost LP has been newly remastered for this exclusive release and pressed on limited edition color vinyl
