Background notes
Archive material and source history
N-Gels came up in the 1980s with a sound that leaned into funk and R&B. Their debut single 'Sex Machine' got them noticed, and they had a core lineup that included James 'Jimmy' Seals on vocals, Maurice White on drums, Gregory Coleman on bass, and Charles Simmons on guitar. White's drumming, Coleman's bass lines, and Simmons' guitar work gave the group its particular feel.
They put out albums like 'The Pleasure Principle,' which had songs like 'Lust for Love' and 'You Turned Me On,' and later ones including 'The Power of Love' and 'Chocolate.' Their catalog also includes tracks like 'Pool Party,' 'Controller,' and 'Punk Rock Girl.'
Some of their lyrics and performances drew criticism at the time, which led to censorship and protests at shows. The group also dealt with personal issues, including addiction and internal conflicts. Their music had an influence on later artists, particularly in how it handled rhythm and groove.
