Soul Sugar

Add to Cart$8.99 ... LP (reissue)
LP (Item 57608) Capitol, Late 60s -- Condition: New Copy

A fantastic album, and one of Jimmy's hardest to find! The set is quite different than most of Jimmy's other work -- and it features short, hard, funky tracks that feel more like obscure 7" singles than any of Jimmy's straighter soul jazz work. It almost sounds like The JBs are backing him -- as the drums are tight, bass is great, and the overall groove is fantastic! The record's a little like Jimmy's Electric Funk album, but harder, with more breaks and basslines -- and a non-stop groove that's a pure delight for any fan of deep funk! Great stuff, with "Ain't It Funky Now", "The Now Thing", "Fat Cakes", "New Volume", and "Bug Out".  © 1996-2010, Dusty Groove America, Inc.
