Say Blow by Blow Backwards
Released
The six-track 1979 follow up to Wesley and Parker’s debut Horny Horns album is another set of stretched out Parliament/Funkadelic and JBs hybrid funk jams from the former James Brown horn section. It’s bold — the opening horns on final track ‘Circular Motions’ could have soundtracked a film while the synth work make it sound like an update of Maceo’s futurist ‘Cross The Tracks’ — the tracks are made of long vamps to allow the musicians to freely solo and there’s a nice variety in the different flavours of funk. Top-level late seventies funk music.
