Now Again Records

They had a catchy, but inappropriate name: there is nothing forthcoming about Los Angeles' 4th Coming, unless one counts a copious amount of releases - on rare 7" singles - that didn't sell farther than vocalist / principal Henry 'Hank' Porter's Datsun 1200 could take him. When 4th Coming records surfaced in the '90s, they were often disregarded as novelty. And some of their records were so rare that it took until the late '00s for them to reemerge, after the sinking of their initial pressing runs. Assembling a complete set of 4th Coming recordings was nearly impossible, until the issue of this, the lost 4th Coming album. At its core, the 4th Coming was a songwriting duo - Porter and Jechonias 'Jack' S. Williams - and a rotating cast of musicians - including members of lauded LA funk ensemble the Watts 103rd St. Rhythm Band - that Williams assembled at Artist Recording Studio to realize the pair's ideas. They existed only from the latter half of 1969 until 1974; during that time they issued eight singles as 4th Coming and one as Impact! on Al Firth's Alpha imprint.
