The Rascals - 1972 - The Island Of Real
Some of Felix Cavaliere's funkiest songs, Crusaders bassist Robert "Pops" Popewell, the Butterfield Blues Band horn section (with David Sanborn), soulful vocals and jazz solos combine to create another great but overlooked album by the Rascals. With a groove at times like Tower of Power, at others like latter-day Sly & the Family Stone, this, the band's final recording, is worth seeking out. The CD reissue on Sundazed adds two previously unreleased bonus tracks, the Cavaliere originals "Prove It" and "Love Is a Woman."(AMG) 01 - Lucky day 02 - Saga of New York 03 - Be on the real side 04 - Jungle walk 05 - Brother tree 06 - Island of real 07 - Hummin' song 08 - Echoes 09 - Buttercup 10 - Time will tell 11 - Lament 12 - Prove it 13 - Love is a woman LINK
