I couldn't pronounce the title of this release without mangling it if you put a gun to my head, but the Philophon house band crushes it here. The horns, the strings, the DRUMS...

I heard this album back 2016 , just was not in the mood for it, was still into more faster 4/4 beat music . Over last four year I have progressed into this love of soul , funk and especially jazz. This record is on fire, I love it so much . I love changes of the time signatures, yeah it has though Herbie feel, but also the urban feel, back in forest hill I go! jazz, funk, broken beat all in one it's a must !
