Jiro Inagaki & Soul Media: In The Groove (Japan Import, Yellow Colored Vinyl) Vinyl LP
"Since its formation in 1969, Soul Media had championed the fusion of jazz and rock. This evolution took a major leap forward with the 1973 recording of In the Groove. Highlighting jazz’s sharpness, blending in the edge of rock, and injecting the elasticity of funk, the result is a sound that cannot be easily categorized as jazz-rock, jazz-funk, or fusion. It’s a sophisticated, powerful, and simply 'cool' piece of music. This album has also been seen as a direct response to The Crusaders, whom Jiro Inagaki had been paying close attention to at the time. The approach hit the mark—Soul Media captured a 'refined Black feeling' here, paving the way for their final destination: 'Funky Stuff'." - Nippon Columbia
