A bit silly at times, but still pretty great! Bill Cosby teams up with old LA cronie Stu Gardner to do a set of tracks that are parodies of other big soul artists of the early 70s -- and thanks to Stu's good work with the music, most of the tracks work a lot better than you'd expect! The record leads off with some sly slinky Barry White parodies -- including "Yes, Yes, Yes" and "Shift Down"; then goes into a great James Brown funk number, "I Luv Myself Better Than I Luv Myself". It's hard to figure out where some of the other tracks are going -- but the album also features a great spacey jazz number with lots of keyboards, "You're Driving Me Crazy". DO NOT SLEEP on the rare gem!!
SAMPLE MOMENTS: All tracks are loaded with some very funky, soulful samples. Also, with Ray Parker Jr on bass, the bass lines are to die for!!
