Jiro Inagaki and Soul Media - Funky Stuff [Clear Vinyl] (LP)

A masterpiece of jazz rock by the master, Jiro Inagaki! Going beyond jazz rock. Soul Media, led by Jiro Inagaki, has arrived at a tight, cool, and ultimate groove.

As Inagaki himself said, "I did black funk," by fusing the explosiveness of jazz rock that he had cultivated up until then with the tenacity and elasticity of black music, his musicality has leapt to another dimension. Combined with the ingenious arrangements of master Hiromasa Suzuki, the groove is polished, glossy, and mysteriously shining. All the songs are worth listening to, including the dynamic and fast-paced "Painted Paradise," the coexistence of funkiness and mellowness in "Breeze," and the low-centered and sharp cover of Kool & the Gang's "Funky Stuff." This is now a definitive masterpiece that is in demand all over the world.
