JIMMY MCGRIFF - GROOVE GREASE





















http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?gp9rzpar441d50z

Track 1 - Groove Grease
Track 2 - The Bird
Track 3 - Plain Brown Bag
Track 4 - There Will Never Be Another You
Track 5 - Canadian Sunset
Track 6 - Mr. Lucky
Track 7 - Moonglow
Track 8 - Red Sails In The Sunset
Track 9 - Secret Love

This 1971 release by Jimmy McGriff certainly doesn't stack up to the excellent Electric Funk which you can download here, however there is still some sweet grooves to be had. Jimmy's organ playing is exceptional as always but the other musicians can't keep up with the funk and the production doesn't help things either. To be fair though, I enjoyed this record enough to post it here so it does have redeeming features. The music comes off sounding like a more laid back version of Booker T & The M.G's so if you like their stuff then this should appeal to you.
