Powerhouse is an album by the American band the Kinsey Report, released on March 5, 1991.[1][2] They supported it with North American tours that included a stint with labelmates Albert Collins and Larry McCray.[3][4] The album was named for the Kinseys' grandfather's church, Powerhouse Church of God in Christ.[5]
The band incorporated more of the sounds of their previous work: hard rock from Ralph and Donald's band White Lightnin'; reggae from Donald's time with Peter Tosh and Bob Marley.[6] Family patriarch Big Daddy Kinsey played guitar on "Good Mornin' Mississippi".[7] "Keep On Moving" is about the father's journey from the Mississippi Delta to Gary, Indiana.[8] "I'll Be Singing the Blues" addresses the homelessness crisis of the 1980s.[9]
