Review by Gooner
PROG REVIEWER
3 stars A great intro and maybe an outro for the group Mandrill. It might be all of the Mandrill you will ever need. Similar to the works of Santana, War, Malo, Tower Of Power, Cymande, early-Osibisa and Chase. Slightly more on the funk side of things, though. Not unlike Funkadelic musically (but without the buzzed out George Clinton circus/sideshow) This compilation kicks it off with their 2 best known tracks in "Ape Is High" and "Fencewalk". Recommended for fans of jazz/rock fusion and funk. For the actual albums, I recommend the first, second and third Mandrill recordings.
