Description
Always a formidable improviser, alto saxophonist Maceo Parker was baptized by the two supreme prophets of funk, James Brown and George Clinton. After a quarter century of collaborating with the two soul visionaries he started spreading the gospel of groove in the late 1980s with his own blazing band, made up mostly of alumni from Brown’s disciplined R&B academy and Clinton’s free-flowing funk seminars. A consummate entertainer, Parker turns every performance into a uproarious party.
