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 Quote

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 Quote

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 Quote

soulpope Posted September 1 Report Posted September 1 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 .... Quote
soulpope Posted September 2 Report Posted September 2 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 .... Quote
soulpope Posted September 4 Report Posted September 4 Interesting period covering the gradual transition from Soul to Funk .... Quote
