He even played on what I consider the best funk-jazz album of all time, Herbie Hancock's Manchild from 1975.

Paul Jackson plays also on there, on which track(s) did Louis Johnson play? (It's probably some track with slap bass, but I don't remember even though I'm a Herbie geek...)

He has a writing credit on The Traitor, so it must be that 9:36 of funk bliss.

If you've got funk, you've got style.
