Think of this album as a granddaddy of all things acidy, groovy and otherwise funky in the post-Avant-garde, post-bop Jazz world. Ivan “Joe” Jones, the unheralded forefather of Acid Jazz, recorded this funky monster for Prestige label in 1967. Obscenely hard to find in its original vinyl format, this album has been out of print for decades, and was only shortly made available domestically as a British import CD. However, for the gorgeous, resonant, sparkling sound, nothing beats this the real thing we are offering here. The material ranges from covers of Rock material of the day (Sonny and Cher’s “The Beat goes on” for example) to the classic blues, funk and bop tunes, with an updated arrangements and treatment, of course.. If you love your guitar sound fuzzy, half-tone-y, feedback-y and occasionally distorted, this Mindbender’s for you.
THE ALBUM IS IN NM CONDITION AS IS THE COVER WHICH STILL HAS ITS ORIGINAL SHRINK WRAP STILL ON IT.
