Sex Machine Today (limited numbered LP sleeve edition)

Out Of Stock

Add Item to Want List
CD (Item 381303) Polydor/Hip-O Select, 1975 — Condition: New Copy

A great little album by The Godfather – one that takes the core James Brown sound of the "Sex Machine" generation, and serves it up with a tighter mid 70s twist! Fred Wesley is still very firmly at the helm of the band – and there's a power here that's equal to the later JBs work on the Breakin Bread album. The grooves are nicely free of the "fast funk" syndrome that crept into James' work a few years later as his answer to disco – and are super tight all the way through! The LP includes a 12 minute remake of "Sex Machine" that's worth the price alone – plus the funk cuts "Dead On It", "Problems", and "Deep In It". Nice stuff – and plenty of funkiness to go around! (Limited edition of 5000 copies – numbered, and pressed up in a very cool LP-styled cover!)  © 1996-2010, Dusty Groove America, Inc.
