Dead-heavy funk from Mountain Mocha Kilimanjaro – a combo with a groove that's a lot leaner than their name! This second smoking set clearly puts the Japanese group at the top of the international funk underground – burning with an intensity that takes us back to the best days of the funky 45 underground, yet with a fuller, richer sound than most of their contemporaries too! The lineup features some great keyboards tucked in alongside the horns – which themselves are arranged with the tightness of a blacksploitation soundtrack groove yet also with a nicely rough quality around the edges. Superb stuff all out – and every bit as wonderful as the debut set handled by Jazzman!
