Definately one of their best. It's more than Hendrix meets Sly, even though it's very much that. It's also what I call "spooky church music". SynthiaRose said "I'm in love with blackguitaristz. Especially when he talks about Hendrix."

QUESTION FOR THE SQUAD:
I bought the above CD a few years ago and enjoyed it.My question is: Is the "out of phase" effect on the title track intentional? It seems as if there was a problem on the master that causes one channel or side to fade in and out throughout the song....My original thought was that it was recorded that way or that it was intentionally "freaked" up to enhance the psychedelic expirience.
However , the recent import remaster "Motor City Madness" corrects some of this problem. Anybody know what the story on that is? Was the vinyl LP the same as the later CD? Am I crazy ?  "...all you need ...is justa touch...of mojo hand....." | |

It was being done already..... Can you say "Muddy Waters???" I know all about that, I'm referring to hard rock as in the kind of rock n roll played by AC/DC or Led Zeppelin. Since the late fifties and early sixties , the black and white half of the rock n roll family tree were stylistically segregated into R&B and Rock and the industry had little interest in promoting any black artists who were playing "rock" and not "r&b". When Hendrix and Sly came onto the scene everything changed, and pretty soon the british blues revisionism and hendrix's influence combined to create hard rock, but since hendrix the de facto stylistic, racial segregation of rock n roll reasserted itself. Even though Funkadelic was playing stuff that rocked as hard as anything white rockers were doing, it was relegated to the category of "funk". Living Colour was one of the first cases since Hendrix where black artists asserted theythat weren't limited against playing hard rock n roll just because they were black. | |
