| |
| King Curtis employed a powerhouse lineup on Everybody's Talkin', |
| including soul-jazz luminaries Bernard Purdie, Cornell Dupree, Billy |
| Butler, Billy Preston, and the Memphis Horns. As can be expected, the |
| tunes here are relatively indicative of the times and range from |
| greasy Southern ballads to more funky material. |
| |
| Among the highlights are the slow, loping funk of "If I Were a |
| Carpenter" (which sounds like any number of Pete Rock's mid-song |
| interludes), the title track, and the near identical cover of King |
| Floyd's "Groove Me." Best of all, though, is "Ridin' Thumb" which |
| appears both in vocal and instrumental form. The vocal version begins |
| the second side of the LP and is clearly the most worthy single on |
| the album. |
| |
| The instrumental, on the other hand, bookends the set (as well as the |
| side) and is very clearly the rest of the vocal take after Curtis |
| switched from vocals to tenor sax. Seeing as the musicians were |
| already well into the groove by the time the instrumental half of the |
| tune kicks in, the argument can be made that "Ridin' Thumb-Jam" is |
| the is the funkier of the two and a fine example of soul-jazz at its |
| best. |
| |
| |
| King Curtis - tenor saxophone |
| Jerry Jemmott - bass |
