Rooms in My Fatha's House is the debut album by the American musician Vinx, released in 1991.[3][4] Vinx referred to his music as "prehistoric pop" or "cross-under", claiming that it was neither rock nor world nor jazz.[5]
Vinx supported the album by opening for Sting on his Soul Cages tour.[6]
The album was produced in part by Sting, who also penned the liner notes.[7] Sting acted as more of a caretaker of the recording sessions, allowing Vinx creative control and ensuring that there wasn't any outside interference.[8]
Taj Mahal, Branford Marsalis, Sheryl Crow, and Herbie Hancock were among the album's guest musicians.[9][10] The actor Roscoe Lee Browne appears on "While the City Sleeps".[11] Vinx's regular band, made up of percussionists and a vocalist, was dubbed the Barkin' Feet.[12]
