Young Holt Unlimited - Superfly







YOUNG HOLT UNLIMITEDPlays Superfly

Young and Holt lay down grooves from Curtis Mayfield's Superfly soundtrack ion this Paula records release (and all the good ones too -- like "Freddie's Dead", "Give Me Your Love", "Pusher Man", and "Superfly"), and they also get into some funky tracks of their own (like "Hey Pancho" and "Mystical Man"), and do a tight cover of "People Make the World Go Round" that was used by Compton's Most Wanted for "Raised in Compton"

The album's nice and stripped down -- perhaps closest to their Oh Girl LP on Atlantic... in feel, with loads of cool electric piano by Ken Chaney, laid out over the group's harder funky grooves!
