CD Reviews

As a school, it would be a High School (3,5 stars)
Motownphilly | France | 07/22/2005
(4 out of 5 stars)

"The funkiest sax player ever is back with a new album!

My favorite tracks are the infectious "What You Know About Funk?" (which features great rap from his son, Corey Parker) and the smooth jazz dreamy "Song For My Teacher" (what a beautiful song! it reminds me of Grover Washington Jr.).

Contains also nice covers from Jackson 5's "ABC" and Sam Cooke's "What A Wonderful World" featuring Candy Dulfer.

I admit it's a grower because it's speed, complex and lenghty music, and it takes time to know and recognize the melodies. But it's definitively worth checking if you are into jazz-funk

Blow Maceo!

Excellent Sax work AND Excellent Horn Arrangement

"I have to rate this CD as Maceo's best to date. The first two songs will blow you away, and I have never heard horn arrangements like this from Maceo before. My favorite is Basic Funk 101, which should swap names with Advanced Funk because there is nothing 'basic' about the song. It has everything. Keep those sixteenth notes a comming."
Funkiest Funk

"Uoh, Uoh, Uoh! This album is one of the most entertaining albums ever made in my rating! Maceo and his band here blow some extraterrestrial, out of this world, phenomenal funky stuff that will shake your walls and make you feet tap foerever! Absolutly fabolous album, nothing less. I own it since it came out and I have listened to it thousands times, from the beginning to the end, sometimes even in loop. I own two albums from Maceo, this one and Funkoverload and even if Funkoverload is very good too, this is the one that could blow anyone away! It is simply phenomenal funky stuff, extremely groovin', with sax solos from Maceo to die for. The band is extremely tight, the arrangements interesting and very in tune with the style, and the funky is all around! There are not highlight tunes here, the album is an highlight in its entirely! Absolutly a must have if you love the funk stuff. This album will turn heads."
