"Sadly, few people are aware of the true funk bands of the 70s. Which is a crying shame given the talent most of them had to offer. I discovered Mandrill Is a couple of years ago, and can confidently put this album in my all-time favorites list (alongside other 70s funksters: The Meters, Parliament/Funkadelic, Cymande, Sly and the Family Stone etc etc). From the face-scrunching funk of the opening track "Ape Is High" to the powerful drums and vocals of "Here Today Gone Tomorrow", this album is essential for anyone who loves funk music. If you think funk is exclusive to James Brown, think again."
