FUNKY SKULL
Melvin JACKSON
- Ref. KJ1430
- DUSTY GROOVE AMERICA, 2007. Enregistrement 1969.
"Amplified bass, electronic effets, and more, all served in one of the headiest funk albums of the 60s. Eddie Harris' bassman Melvin Jackson works here in a Cadet Records-like session with horns from members of the AACM (including Lester Bowie, Leo Smith, Roscoe Mitchell), guitar from Phil Upchurch, vocals from the Sound of Feeling, and lots of funky rhythms on the stretched-out tracks. A unique record that's in the same territory as early Earth Wind & Fire (...), sophisticated, and totally righteous!" (Texte de la pochette)
