The Soul Zodiac CD is a must for all lovers of real and smooth Jazz. There is something here for Jazz lovers, and those who seek the wisdom of their zodiac sign. Aries is exceptional.

This review is from: Soul Zodiac (Audio CD)

At my old college radio station, I used to play this album from time to time. Then one of the other dj's graduated and the record disappeared. Imagine that.

Out of print and HARD to find, I've been waiting for this to be resurrected forever. I've found snippets of the record here and there on youtube and one site that had a transferred version from vinyl to CD. But I wanted a great, digital representation of this amazing album and thank goodness somebody got up off their butt and made it happen.

Love this album. funky, cosmic, imaginative and downright cool. This album is afro.

Soul Zodiac
Spacy, free, almost cosmic.
As Miles Davis and his peers pushed jazz into electronic splendor. the brothers Adderley rehearsed the selections of Soul Zodiac into a nebulous set of free jams.
Employing studio guitarist Mike Deasy and the full force of Nat's quintet, Nat Adderley contacted disc jockey Richard Jones. Jones wrote and recited portions of
his zodiac broadcasts over compositions of Deasy, George Duke and the Adderleys. The end result--mostly due to Jones and the Adderleys' skillful editing--is this obscure, but magnificent masterpiece.

The jams capture true fusion jazz at its best and spaciest.
