Customer Reviews

les talks to the people
you have two albums here ... a soul explosion that's on par with anything issac hayes has ever done . and a funky - wah-wah - fuzz bass - clavinet - break beat monster unlike anything i've ever heard . this record should be what herbie hancock's "headhunters" has become . for fans of the electric eddie harris , roland kirk , quincy jones , p- funk , or even stevie wonder get on this, you will be blown away

The best of Les's electric piano Atlantic years
On Talk to the people Hear the laid back version of Whats Going On if you liked the original you'll like les's gravely vocals and his electric piano throughout the album The other album River Deep has three good tracks the others are more in a MOR mode.

talk to the people
talk to the people is the album that should be as big as Herbie Hancock's "headhunters" . funky as hell , deep and heavy ... wah wah guitar , clavinet , fuzz bass , electric piano , and les's soulful voice . 77 plus minutes of bliss . one of mike d (beastie boys) 's favorite all time jazz albums and definately one of mine . (for credibility sake i'm a big yusef lateef , roland kirk , and eddie harris fan)
