Posted 2 Jun 2020 (edited) excellent extraordinary acid deep-house track on this one. Something utterly unique. Edited 2 Jun 2020 by Referentzhunter Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 2 Jun 2020 The Glad to Be Unhappy sessions: My library used to have a subscription to a service that allowed for streaming and up to 5 downloads a week. Between our two accounts, this was one of several box sets I downloaded. With the new Desmond Mosaic out, I realized that I never listened to this whole set. Although having this set means I have a healthy chunk of Desmond, the thought of hearing that much Ed Bickert is very tempting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It is, but I've certainly heard much worse (this is not bootleg sound, just poorly recorded), and Criss's performance is incendiary. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 3 Jun 2020 Listening to this for the first time since the early 2000's when I promptly discarded it. The only fault I really see in this is the raps. They are poor at best, especially give how creative hip hop was becoming in the early 90's. I wonder what the final product would have been if Miles was there to see this project through. The one thing I have been struck by is how effortless and inventive Miles was without the interplay of a band. really interesting and impressive stuff. Its also intriguing how he was melding the two genres in a similar concept but vastly different way than Steve Coleman was. This made me pull out Hami The Funky Descendant to play next Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's got a great, very full, sound for an album from the early 80s. Pullen is good on it too. Edited 3 Jun 2020 by Rabshakeh Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
