' '
,: Ronnie Foster's debut album, The Two Headed Freap is a set of :,
: contemporary funky soul jazz from the early '70s, which means it :
:' sounds closer to the soundtrack of a lost blaxploitation flick ':
,: than Back at the Chicken Shack, Pt. 2. Foster certainly does :,
: display a debt to Jimmy Smith, but his playing is busier than :
:' Smith's and a bit wilder. Ironic, then, that his playing is in ':
,: service to the groove and blends into the mix of wah-wah :,
: guitars, funk rhythms, electric bass, harps, and percolating :
:' percussion. Everything on The Two Headed Freap is about glitzy ':
,: groove -- it sounds cinematic, colorful, and funky. It's true :,
: that there is little real improvisation here and the songs all :
:' have a similar groove, but it's worked well, and the music is ':
,: ultimately appealing to fans of this genre. Jazz purists -- even :,
: soul jazz purists -- will likely find this music a little :
:' monotonous and commercial, but fans of early-'70s funk from Sly ':
,: Stone to Herbie Hancock will find something of interest here. :,
