The last great album from the JBs updated their sparse, lean funk aesthetic that had reached its apex on James Brown’s ’73 ‘The Payback’ album with the addition of clavinet and Moog as well as some proto-disco 4/4 rhythms too, creating a richer, denser sound than their previous outings. Seven tracks of sophisticated, unrelenting instrumental funk by some of the best to ever do it, full of characteristic JBs clarion-call horns, skeletal guitar lines and relentlessly funky basslines, all precisely arranged for maximum dance floor impact.
