chewy-chew-chew-bean-benitez Posted July 23, 2009 Report Posted July 23, 2009 (edited) why i contemplated at the record store for 20 min. over whether or not to get this 3 dollar record is beyond me: im alread on side 2 song 2 and it flows together as an album, much better than i perceived from reading the track song selection/personel/instrumentation, etc.....on lp cover i thought: man this looks like a pretty disjointed throw together.....boy was i wrong. its just a buffet table of funk- its a funk-explosion: then theres this bebop track w/ don ellis on trumpet (i didnt even know he was alive in 1977)-- so this lp is just a mind-bender for me, in more ways than one- i will always love it http://smoothjazz.mallmusic.cl/imagen/album/1359 Edited July 23, 2009 by chewy Quote

flat5 Posted July 24, 2009 Report Posted July 24, 2009 (edited) Put .jpg on the end of the link after downloading. I like Eddie's earlier music. He wrote a great jazz sight reading book! Just a string of jazz phrases from beginning to the end of the book. For the student it is helpful and fun. He accomplished a lot. Edited July 24, 2009 by flat5 Quote
