A live album bursting with soulful grooves.
This is a live album by the Crusaders released in 1974. It features a powerful performance that brings together the energies of jazz, soul, and funk in a straightforward manner, even though the band was in the transitional period of evolving into fusion.
This is a documentary of the Crusaders' passionate live performance during their crossover jazz era, featuring Joe Sample (keyboards), Wilton Felder (sax), and Stix Hooper (drums). The ensemble, weaving together sparkling electric piano, tight rhythms, and soulful saxophone, effortlessly crosses the boundaries of funk and jazz, vividly capturing the heat of the mid-'70s. The album's appeal lies in its rawness and groove, which is distinct from their studio releases, allowing you to experience the Crusaders at their best.
