A totally excellent Buster Williams album from the mid 70's, and one of the best (and hardest to find) albums on Muse! The bassist has always been one of our favorite talents -- and this little gem is one of the few albums he's cut on his own, a majestic bit of soul jazz and funk, recorded with a very hip lineup! Includes the great slow funk track "The Hump", which has a tight sample-heavy bass and electronics intro, plus lots of other nice ones like "Tayamisha", "Batuki", and "Noble Ego". Sonny Fortune, Woody Shaw, and Billy Hart are all in the group -- and with players like that, how can you miss?Dusty Groove

Hi boost,
congratulations to your new blog.
This one from Buster Williams is absolutely new for me and it's with the great Woody Shaw (Wow). I will download it now.
Thanks again

Congrats to the new blog. Guess it wil keep you busy :-D
Buster Williams are new to me. Thanks.
nice. I've always treasured my lp, but it's nice to get one for the ipod. this is an underrated album, just as good as the Eddie Henderson mwandishi records, but rarely recognized as such. thanks!
Very good stuff, and a great launch to a blog w/ a great name. This is very Mwandishi-like, but maybe a little more accessible. I really like the off-kilter "The Bump". Let's play a game of "Where's the downbeat?"
yes the metric of "the hump" is very fun. i think it's 19/8
This is something really special. The whole spectrum of sounds and ideas jells so finely together that I can't believe this guy is not more famous, if only on the strength of this album alone! Thanks for sharing this gem mate!
