11/16/03 United-mutations.com CD REVIEW - Monster For The Masses OK, funkateers, here's one for you. It's funny how some people can't hear the similarities in greasy funk à la George Clinton, Funkadelic, Bootsy Collins or even Prince, and Frank Zappa. I read a quote somewhere, where George Clinton said that every man (or was it black man) should listen to Frank Zappa. I don't know why he said it, but I can understand why. Every once in a while I hear Zappa in Clinton's music. And now there's Afroskull. A funky band, and they play Zappa compositions in concert ! "Monster For The Masses" is their debut album. They don't play any Zappa on it. Pity, because they sure have the chops for it. Up-tempo, heavy and greasy. I like this very much. Good grief, those horns... |
