Quite possibly the funkiest album ever recorded by saxophone legend Nathan Davis -- a sweet little session with plenty of electric touches! The sound here differs greatly from Davis' 60s work on the European scene -- his amazing albums for MPS and Polydor -- and the record's awash in funky drum breaks, rolling basslines, keyboard solos, and plenty of searing work on soprano, tenor, alto, and flute by Nathan himself!

A few funky standouts on the record have been sampled heavily over the years, but the whole thing's great through and through -- and titles include "Tragic Magic", "New Orleans", "African Boogie", "Stick Buddy", and "Bahia".
