The funk bone-up continues.
I hear this was influenced by Sly and the Family Stone, which is on my list, so I'll have to see about that. For the most part, there's something about this that doesn't appeal to me. Its a little formless, without the groove that characterized the James Brown stuff, and there's just something tacky about the sound that I can't put my finger on - the sax sound is a little too clean, the bass sound a little too smooth, it just seems sort of plastic somehow. The 2nd half of Sly builds up a good froth, but generally, meh. Maybe its just too jazz, which is a genre I really have to work to like sometimes 1.5/5
