NORTHAMPTON – To spend time with the Yohimbe Brothers – DJ Logic and guitarist Vernon Reid – is to sit under a conversational pendulum and listen for the movement as opposites attract.
Logic catches you on the sly, whispering truths that Reid’s wide, new moon eyes respond to. The dreadlocked guitarist, his chin wrapped from the bottom in a glaring spot of blue facial hair, glances over from the small, backstage bar in the corner of the Pearl Street nightclub, jumpstarted mid-thought while mixing a spoonful of honey into his tea.
“Wait, wait, now who said that?” he says.
“Yeah,” says Logic quietly. “Read that again.”
