Flash Light is Tom Verlaine's fifth solo album. After a three-year hiatus, during which Verlaine lived in both New York and Europe, he released the album with a large amount of promotion and touring in the UK. It was recorded by Mario Salvati at Sorcerer 2, New York City except "The Scientist Writes a Letter", engineered by Mark Wallis. Mixed by Paul O'Duffy at Sarm West, London. Cover from an artwork by Susan Hiller. Layout by John Rimmer at Pointblanc. All songs written by Tom Verlaine.

This funk classic was originally recorded for Parliament bass player Bootsy Collins' spin-off band, Bootsy's Rubber Band. It was intended for their first album, but ended up going to Parliament, where it became the group's first R&B hit and one of their most popular tracks. The chant in the song: "ha-da-dadee-da da-da hava da da," is based on a Jewish Bar Mitzvah chant. In the P-Funk universe, Sir Nose D'Voidoffunk is a character who, as the name implies, is devoid of funk. In "Flash Light," Starchild helps him find the funk, and finally, he dances. In the '70s, Clinton and other members of the crew would wield giant flashlights when they performed this song, aiming them at Sir Nose (originally played by Larry Heckstall) until he found the funk. The crowd started bringing their own flashlights to the shows, so the band started selling them at the venues.
