Only solo album by Eddie Harris' bass player Melvin Jackson-one of the headiest funk albums of the 1960's, bringing together greats from the Chicago funk and avant jazz scenes; amplified bass, electronic effects, and abundant funky rhythms on the stretched out tracks, with horns from AACM members Lester Bowie, Leo Smith and Roscoe Mitchell, guitar from Phil Upchurch, and vocals from the Sound of Feeling; soulful, sophisticated, and totally righteous-a unique record in the same musical territory as early funky albums by Earth, Wind & Fire, Ramsey Lewis, and Charles Stepney on Cadet. Filled with funky breaks and samples.
