A new horizon of funk with psychedelic colors dancing
An ambitious work by a solitary genius that combines experimental sound engineering with powerful groove.
Shuggie Otis singlehandedly uses multi-track recording to create his own unique musical universe. His sense of freedom as he crosses soul, jazz, and rock remains as forward-thinking as ever, even decades after its release.
