Easayy Monnneyyyyyyyyyy!! My fav track from KC. This version of KC was the best. They were playing something so raw, complex and powerful. The music remains fresh sounding and vital.

The ballads are interesting, but the true strength of the album lies in the second half, an utterly transcendent sequence of Easy Money, The Talking Drum, and Lark's Tongue in Aspic Part 2 . That, plus the opening track, make this one of the greatest al
