Sonny Knight cut his first single in 1965, had a hiatus for several years, then played intermittently throughout the years in Minnesota. This is his debut album. Playing absolute kick-ass funky, soulful struttin’ shit. Something Sunshine would’ve played. Horns, organ, bass, gtr, drums. The Real Deal. Not to be missed!!! No FCC’s.
*My Favorites*: All.
1. (2:42) Mid. Hard hittin’ w/ audience in background.
2. (2:48) Fast. Full-throttle romp.
3. (2:54) Slow / Mid. Testifyin’ w/ James Brown’s ‘King Heroin’ vibe.
4. (4:07) Mid. Picks up from previous song, more upbeat.
5. (2:25) Mid / Fast. Funky bluesy barn-burner.
6. (2:32) Mid. Solid funky boogaloo w/ back vcls.
7. (2:52) Mid / Fast. Groovin’ strut w/ solos.
8. (4:02) Slow / Mid. Old school soul ballad.
9. (3:24) Mid. Soulful crawl.
10. (3:11) Mid / Fast. Serious funkin’ stuttin’.
11. (5:16) Mid. Steady funk w/ Knight tellin’ it, audience back.
