Black Velvet

This Is Black Velvet

Initially formed in southeast London in the mid-1960s as the Coloured Raisins, obscure black rock quartet Black Velvet infused their sound with soul and reggae undercurrents, a testament to the Caribbean origins of the group members, and the pervasive styles inspiring the black communities that inhabited Londons marginal outskirts. Produced by Don Lawson for the Beacon label, which was launched by the Antiguan businessman and future politician Milton Samuel, Black Velvets powerful debut is a snapshot in time of Londons black underground that will appeal to anyone interested in the black British music scene of the early 1970s.
