Cry, baby, cry



This has to be one of my favourite heavy funk sides of all time: saxophonist Joe Farrell's 1974 12 minute epic 'Upon this Rock'. Syrupy psychedelic funk/jazz/fusion with perhaps the most awesome wah-wah electric guitar grooves ever to be put on wax. Unmissable. Great drum breaks too.
