"Great music great playing was originally released on three vinyl disks

Funk and jazz yet with no cliches. Brian is the original all tried to copy, and in a way you might say that AWB came close, but if you look at the material here(:herbie hancock, marvin gaye, eddie harris and Brian's best tunes) you can begin to understand the difference. I could go into the individual players and cuts, but, if you like Brian you like this. My only complaint is Brian should have taken over more vocals, as Alex Ligertwood,who went on to join Santana, is too hyper. But the grooves are great and keep me moving, in part because of percussion, and Brian proves it is possible to play jazz with a funk accent, without becoming "jazzy" or having funk take over."
