Title: Back to the future....again
Review: Something old, something new, something borrowed....oh never mind! Look this CD is better than most of your reviewers give it cedit for. It's wonderfully recorded, funky as hell and yes it really does sound NEW. Herbie has done this before (hence the name of this review) with Future Shock and other efforts but this one is very good indeed. The stand out track has to be "Tony Williams" with a sampled drum track from the master himself-wow! The vocals on the CD are ordinary with Chaka Khan sounding like she sent in her performance by email but really the sheer funkiness of it all carries you along. Want your body moved as well as your brain? Buy this CD because it has vastly more musical integrity and invention than 90% of what passes for funk/hip-hop/soul etc these days.
Is the review positive or negative?
