    • 8. heavy soul slinger

    A wild one! After the straight hard funk of some of his earlier recordings as a leader, Bernard "Pretty" Purdie breaks out here in a compelling album of soul jazz tracks done in a number of styles. The approach is sort of big studio funk with some cuts that have a harder sound.


    Horace Ott arranges, conducts, and plays electric piano, and Richard Tee plays organ on a number of cuts and Purdie's drums are supertight, superfunky as ever!
