Party Down

Temporarily Out Of Stock

Add Item to Want List
LP (Item 4836) Cat, 1974 — Condition: New Copy

Nicely done US reissue of one of the few really fantastic albums to come out of the Miami scene of the seventies! The great Little Beaver lays down some righteous guitar and heavy vocals over a cool spare backing groove on cuts like "I Can Dig It Baby", "Money Vibrations", "Let The Good Times Roll", and "Party Down (parts 1 & 2)". The sound is sort of a mix between Shuggie Otis' Inspiration Information LP and heavier funk outings, and the record's a classic bit of southern 70s funk. Nice to have back on wax, guv'nor!  © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc.
