A landmark bit of indie funk from the 70s – one of the few records cut
by Detroit keyboardist Eddie Russ, and easily the best! The album
features Russ going to town on electric piano – working with a hip combo
called The Mixed Bag, which features some wicked work on flute and
soprano sax by Larry Nozero – and a vibe that's a lot more laidback than
standard funk, or even more mainstream jazz funk too – a sweet open
groove that's mighty nice all the way through! The album's really a
showcase for Nozero and Russ' solos – trading back and forth
effortlessly over long tunes that roll along in a sweet electric-tinged
groove – long vamping rhythms that really seem to drive both players
onto new heights.
