1977 Jazz / Funk LP Repressed - Sunbear’s one and only album released on LA’s Soul Train in 1977 has buried itself in the wants-list of many a record collector, not least for its undeniably incredible album artwork. Contained within though are 10 tracks of unadulterated jazz funk gold, with standout number ‘Let Love Flow For Peace’ channelling Herbie Hancock-esque synth-work and magical vocals.
Timeless business and a favourite of the likes of Gilles Peterson, Floating Points, Charlie Bones and Volcov.
