That was a big album for me when it was released, haven't heard it in years. I wonder how well it dates.

Now listening to this. It's aged very well. Such a "clever" album with all its influences and parts working towards such a satisfying whole. It sounded both of and out of its time on release and to some extent still does 

Thanks for encouraging me to reinvestigate after 20+ years

Gong – Flying Teapot

Con Funk Shun „Secrets“ (Mercury)                                                                              1977 ….

Sylvian has such a unique voice, too. I don't love everything he does, but you always know it's him.

Me too. There's a handful of his albums I really like, the rest less so by quite a bit. I really respect how he's ploughed his own furrow so determinedly

L.T.D. "Something To Love" (A & M Records) 1976 ....

Being young in the 70`s granted a wealth of superb music .... took it for granted back then and only later I realised the ingenious of Earth, Wind & Fire ....

That's a special album for me. I listened to it a lot in the summer of 1977 along with Grover Washington and War. It was the very start of a journey away from Metal through Jazz-Funk, Britfunk to this comment today.

EWF, essential

This one is pretty excellent

Popul Vuh - Letzte Tage – Letzte Nächte

[soulpope]

Booker T. & The M.G.'s "McLemore Avenue" (Stax Records) 1970 .... quite a risk to tackle an instrumental only Beatles cover album .... but it paid off ....

[soulpope]

Tremendous compi ..... and at the same time  proving the sad truth how little Atlantic managed to get out of this roster .... btw great transfer via Rhino Records ....

Interesting period covering the gradual transition from Soul to Funk ....
