Madly tripped out guitar funk – and a real turning point in the career of guitarist
Eddie Fisher!
Eddie began his career as a straighter guitarist on the St Louis scene – and although his first album for Cadet was a relatively traditional soul-jazz outing, this
one's a wild batch of tripped-out guitar licks! The band's a fuzzy psychedelic
one – not in a rock-styled way, but more in an early George Clinton kind of mode, with plenty of rumbling bass at the bottom, warm electric piano lines, nicely placed drum beats, and
Eddie's fuzzbox guitar snaking and wah wah-ing over the top!
Eddie arranged and produced, and the record's a perfect batch of kicked-back stoner funk numbers that go on and on and on and on! Titles include "Land Of Our Father", "Beautiful Things", "East St Louis Blues", "Another Episode", "Either Or", and "Jeremiah Pucket".
