El Michels Affair

Easy Access (parts 1 & 2)
Misty/Soul Fire, 2002. New Copy
The first 12" single on Soul Fire – and a real doozy! The track's an extended jazz funk number with some great guitar on the intro, and an expanded horn section that's so big, so mighty, it needed a full 12 inches of wax just to hold it. Horn work is incredible – on a par with ...
