Album Notes & Community Reviews

Designed primarily to capitalize on a fleeting dance craze, this groove-heavy collection predominantly features instrumental showcases for the singer's backing band. The tight, percussive arrangements and explosive horn charts solidify the structural blueprint for the deep funk era of the early 1970s.
