Maceo Parker (/ˈmeɪsioʊ/; born February 14, 1943) is an American funk and soul jazz saxophonist, best known for his work with James Brown in the 1960s, Parliament-Funkadelic in the 1970s and Prince in the 2000s. Parker was a prominent soloist on many of Brown’s hit recordings, and a key part of his band, playing alto, tenor and baritone saxophones. Since the early 1990s, he has toured under his own name.

An outstanding, jazz funk groove album. Just let the old’s cool sounds of Maceo’s alto sax send your body to the happy land where time forgot.

Live recordings are, by definition, a snapshot in time, a backbeat of memory, a droplet of adrenalin forever suspended in amber. No live show can be the same as any other. Each encapsulates its own mood, energy levels, inspiration (and mistakes, if they haven’t been edited out …). Often, that can prove its primary strength, when a confluence of musicians appear together, for one night only, in a performance that flares with an intense force.
