Jimmy McGriff-
Electric Funk
NEW LP
REISSUE
Blue Note, 1970 ¿
Condition: New Copy
One of Jimmy's funkiest albums ever ¿ a sweeeeet batch of short, hard, and funky cuts ¿ and a record that ranks right up there with the mighty Soul Sugar for sheer funkiness!
Jimmy takes an upbeat and easygoing approach to the late 60s funk sound, with a nice, rubbery bass and the organ sound just killer ¿ but would expect less from McGriff on that front?
Truly funky and totally irresistible stuff, with sinister, measured moments that bigger and heavier pretty quickly - kind of prefiguring 70s blacksploitation soundtrack vibes in spots!
The album's great all the way through ¿ tight arrangements by Horace Ott, who also plays electric piano on the set, making for a clean, cool 2-keys kind of groove.
Titles include "Spear for Moondog" (parts 1 & 2), "Tight Times", "Funky Junk", "Bird Wave", and "Back on the Track".
