Facts Of Life – A Matter Of Fact
A Matter Of Fact by Facts Of Life is a fine example of late-1970s American soul, released on the Kayvette label under catalogue number 803. The album combines expressive vocals, polished arrangements and the warm Southern soul character that makes releases from this period particularly enjoyable on vinyl.
Facts Of Life belonged to the rich soul tradition surrounding Kayvette, and A Matter Of Fact captures the group in a period when classic Southern soul was increasingly meeting the smoother, more sophisticated production styles of the late 1970s. It is an album with plenty of warmth and personality rather than simply a collection of individual tracks.
The Kayvette label itself adds another dimension for soul collectors. Its relatively compact catalogue and strong connection with Southern soul make original Kayvette releases interesting additions to a collection, particularly for listeners exploring beyond the major soul labels of the era.
The vinyl is graded Near Mint, showing very little evidence of previous handling and making this a particularly attractive listening copy. The sleeve is graded VG, with normal visible signs of age and previous use, but remains a perfectly presentable original sleeve.
