Moments Worth Listening For
The seven-minute expansion of 'Funny How Time Flies' where the groove stretches into a psychedelic jazz-soul odyssey.
The way the saxophone melody in 'Mama D / Leimert Park' feels like it's physically breathing through the speakers.
The seamless transition from the opening 'Tapestry' into the heavy, funk-laden pocket of 'Chef E Dubble'.
