Pier’s Note:
Disco fantastico, usatissimo nei circuiti afro (romagnoli ma non solo, anche veneti ahahaha) con ”Kilimanjaro”, che fra l’altro vede la collaborazione di Carlos Santana e Herbie Hancock (che nomi eh?) fra gli altri musicisti di questa big-band.
Consiglio l’ascolto di ”They Change It”, un bellissimo funky vocale con una battuta un po’ ‘’sporca” che fa venire la pelle d’oca.
Ringrazio il nostro amicone One-Red per avermelo fatto ricordare…ma come ho fatto a dimenticare un disco così?
Da non perdere.
