Vintage Afro Funk, originally out on Dawn in 1970; for this reissue remastered from the master-tapes, adding all three cuts from their maxi-single, the same year.
The two late-50s albums. The idea was to interweave African percussion, Latin American voicings, and the reeds and horns of US jazz. With Ray Barretto, Cecil Payne, Oscar Pettiford and co.
Her amazing masterwork — the last word in raunchy hard funk, with Anti Love Song, of course, and three decent bonus tracks. Props to Sly Stone’s drummer Greg Errico, and Larry Graham. BD, so BaaaaD.
Only a previously unreleased Curtom recording, from the sessions for Closer To The Source, in 1977.
‘A beautiful floating mid-tempo dancer, with anthemic lyrics, in two different 7” edits: a short-intro version, perfect to drop in the middle of set to keep the dancefloor moving; and a version with the original forty-second intro, using the fantasic female backing vocals as the outro.’
