Feets Don't Fail Me Now
LP (Item 52370) Columbia, 1979 — Condition: Used
One of those albums that always gets lost between the Sextant/Headhunters days – and the later Rockit hip hop records. Herbie's clearly trying to find a voice here – working in a mode that's actually smooth soul on most cuts, mixing keyboards and vocals in a style that's similar to work by Herbie-inheritors like Webster Lewis or Bobby Lyle. The formula works best when it's kept mellow – and achieves a spacious sound that's overall a good extension of Herbie's funk into a soul mode. There's a bit of early electronica on the set, but not much – and titles include "Trust Me", "Tell Everybody", "Honey From The Jar", and "Knee Deep".
