Meta Funk'n Physical - Mother's Finest ( Full Album )

Meta-Funk'n-Physical (2003)
At this point the band was basically a three-piece: Kennedy, Murdock and Seay with rotating guitarists (Hayes and Moore among them) and mostly programmed drums (though Dion Derek, now known as Dion Murdock, is on a few tracks). They cook up an intriguing mix of styles and techniques, combining elements of synth-funk (the Sly-like "Way Of The World," one of Glenn's leads), hard rock ("Bring It"), pop ballads ("Sun On The Inside") and occasionally rap. Since each track incoporates several elements instead of switching abruptly from one to the other, the listening experience is more like an album-length suite than a collection of songs. While the production and arrangements are novel, some of the song material isn't: "Inside Of Me" is a slower, smoother version of "Give You All The Love"; "The N-Groove" is basically a rewrite of 1992's "Like A Negro." On the other hand, "Don't Take Your Love From Me" and "Crazy Side" are among their best slow numbers to date. Vernon Reid and Omar Hakim guest on a spacey, diffuse cover of "If 6 Was 9." Wyzard and Glenn Murdock produced. (DBW)
