Lonnie Liston Smith & The Cosmic Echoes - Cosmic Funk flac album

Written-By – Lonnie Liston Smith. Great funky jazz album. Only thing that I utterly hate on this album is the really bad vocals luckily the instrumentals are what are the real meat of this album. The instrumentals are top notch with a very eastern melodic fortitude and the band is tight. Reply Notify me 1 Helpful. Very beautiful album. Stunning sounds all the way. Really good space jazz.
