I'm sure I'm probably late on this one, but I picked up an amazing Woody Herman LP at the w/e called 'Giant Steps' on Fanatsy (1973).
It has two utterly amazing hardcore funk tunes on it - an amazing super funky version of 'Freedom Jazz Dance' and a Richard Evans original called 'The First Thing I Do' which sounds as if it's from a '70s porn OST - massive beats and OTT wahwah. There's also such a blatant loop at the beggining of this tune that I can't believe someone hasn't already used it. Â
It's always Woody's 'The Raven Speaks' LP which I hear mentioned (great album too) but never this one, so I thought I'd give it a quick mention on the board.
