lesson for the day : look carefully.

this japanese vinyl replica styled cd reissue of this 1974 album was todays find in the head clearout bins.

produced by james brown ("minister of new new super heavy funk" according to the credits), the album is very much of its time.

loose, funky, spacious production, lots of chant outs, horns and an absolute joy to listen to from start to finish.

sample fiends will no doubt be very aware of several of the cuts as soul power 74 and parrty have been ripped to pieces by the hip hop old schoolers.

as i said, look carefully, there is gold in them there bins.
