& lt;header & gt;
& lt;p & gt; & lt;strong & gt;Funk Legend On Limited Edition 180g Orange Vinyl LP! & lt;br & gt;
Includes Covers Of Songs by Dr. John, The Meters, Allen Toussaint, Aretha Franklin & amp; Prince! & lt;/strong & gt; & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;/header & gt;
& lt;p & gt;Maceo Parker, American funk and soul jazz saxophonist best known for his work with James Brown in the 1960s, as well as Parliament-Funkadelic in the 1970s, returns with his first solo album in 8 years. 'Soul Food - Cooking With Maceo' is the first album
on the Mascot Label Group's new imprint, The Funk Garage. & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;p & gt;'Soul Food - Cooking with Maceo' blends raw, old school funk with the flavors of the New Orleans school of music. Parker worked with Ivan Neville, Nikki Glaspie and Tony Hall, as well as a host of local musicians to record the songs. The funky flavor
of the city weaves its way through the album as the funk father and his band take on iconic songs of the Mississippi masters such as Dr. John's voodoo funk of & quot;Right Place, Wrong Time & quot;, The Meters' & quot;Just Kissed My Baby & quot;, & quot;Yes, We Can Can & quot; recorded by
Allen Toussaint as well as takes on Aretha Franklin's & quot;Rock Steady & quot;, Prince's & quot;The Other Side of the Pillow & quot; and Maceo's long-time hero and Ray Charles saxophonist, David & quot;Fathead & quot; Newman's & quot;Hard Times & quot;. & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;p & gt;Listeners also get funky workouts from Parker's own back catalogue on & quot;M A C E O & quot; and & quot;Cross The Tracks & quot;, the latter adopted by Gilles Peterson as the staple song of his iconic WAG Club in Soho, London in the 1980s. & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;p & gt;The amazing Maceo Parker has been at it with his legendary saxophone since the 1960's. That's when Maceo and his drummer brother Melvin climbed on board the James Brown funky soul funk train. It wasn't long before James coined the solo summoning signature,
& quot;Maceo, I want you to Blow! & quot;. To most musicologists it's the musically fertile group of men from this period of James Brown's band who are recognized as the early pioneers of the modern funk and hip-hop whose sounds fans still jump to in the present
day. & lt;/p & gt;
