A monster set of work by one of the funkiest guitar players ever! Ivan
Boogaloo Joe Jones recorded a number of sides for Prestige Records
during the early 70s -- but this rare gem came out after all those, in
1975, on the tiny Joka label, and never really got into proper
circulation at the time -- making it one of THE indie jazz funk
classics of the 70s! The album's actually one of Boogaloo's best -- and
has a rougher edge than his Prestige albums -- heard to great effect on
the two standout funky cuts, "Sweetback" and "Confusion" -- both of
which are stunners that feature Jones really ripping away on the
guitar! The whole set's nice, though.
if u like it buy it and show artists some love!
enjoy...
