Funky Stuff [Pure Vinyl LP]

Funky Stuff is a definitive classic of Japanese jazz-funk. Saxophonist Jiro Inagaki, who said he "played black funk" here, fuses Soul Media's explosive jazz-rock with the elastic, physical groove of funk, polished by Hiromasa Suzuki's masterful arrangements. Highlights include the driving "Painted Paradise," the mellow "Breeze" and a razor-sharp cover of Kool & The Gang's "Funky Stuff."

Made in Japan on heavyweight "Pure Vinyl," uncolored virgin PVC with no carbon or coloring agents. Japanese import pressing.
