The opening track is the very definition of soul jazz--a cover of a Hugh Masakela tune with each soloist offering textbook examples of the genre over a one-chord vamp with drummer Marion Booker providing a funk groove that should be sampled on hip hip hop records. Then, track two starts out as a cinematic exotica tone poem with a guy named 'Fathead' playing the flute, then morphs and gets world-beat funky. It just goes on from there--an Aretha cover, a nursery song... Lee Morgan's solos are stunning. Absolutely great album.
