born to jam

I love this album! The remaster sounds great, high points; all of em! Get it Quick.

DEFINITELY ONE OF THE BEST ALBUMS BY THE QUARTET FUNK

I will never understand why this album sold very poorly. It had excellent songs that were going along with the newer style of the 1970s rock and roll music. My only complaint is that I think CRAIG FROST should have played a grand acoustic piano instead of the newer type of pianos. MARK FARNERS' "TALK TO THE PEOPLE," "MR POLITICIAN," and the title track are my favorite songs with outstanding arrangements on this album. "MR. POLITICIAN" has an excellent guitar and organ opening riffs and vocals, "TALK TO THE PEOPLE" has excellent piano riffs by CRAIG, sax by WET WILLIE'S singer JIMMY HALL, guitar riffs by MARK, and outstanding vocals, and the title track is an outstanding beginner with the piano intro, outstanding vocals, organ and guitar riffs. On the other hand, it was a shame about MARK'S cousin who died in a motorcycle accident. Meanwhile, the arrangement of "DUES" reminds me of PINK FLOYD'S "ANOTHER BRICK IN THE WALL." and the guitar solo on GOOD THINGS also reminds me of the signiture sound of PETER FRAMPTON'S guitar from "FRAMPTON COMES ALIVE". The other songs are great as well. Furthermore, the unreleased "BARE NAKED WOMAN" has some great rhythm and blues that recaptured the psychodelic days for the power trio GFR. I love this album a whole lot better than "GOOD SINGIN' GOOD PLAYIN'." Although a majority may or do not agree, I believe Mark wrote some excellent songs, if not outstanding, on this album like on "ALL THE GIRLS IN THE WORLD BEWARE."

great re-mix

ok, if your a true fan of the funk and this album meant as much to you as it did to me than you'll be siked that you got this remastered cd version.I searched high and low for this cd release a few years ago and finally found it through an import web site, and when i listened to it i found that the drum mix was lacking the crispness of the snare hits in particular, and the guitar, keyboard and vocal mix was a bit disappointing also. just so all you fans know - this remix is as good if not better than a brand new vinyl copy without all the pops and hisses and the snare hits and cymbol responses are where they're supposed to be along with the guitar,keyboards and vocals mixes. finally someone at the re- mixing of this release knew what they where doing.---- many thanks to capital records. its nice to get remastered hard to find, forgotten music, available on CD. thanks again .
