A great little album by The Godfather -- one that takes the core James Brown sound of the "Sex Machine" generation, and serves it up with a tighter mid 70s twist! Fred Wesley is still very firmly at the helm of the band -- and there's a power here that's equal to the later JBs work on the Breakin Bread album. The grooves are nicely free of the "fast funk" syndrome that crept into James' work a few years later as his answer to disco -- and are super tight all the way through! The LP includes a 12 minute remake of "Sex Machine" that's worth the price alone. Review taken from Dustygroove.com

Great ! I have a feeling that "I Feel Good" is just about to go on heavy rotation.
