'Southern Exposure: 2% jazz, 98% funk'
By Gabriel Schlumberger | May 17, 1995You have probably heard Maceo Parker, even if you haven't heard of him. He is a veritable Forrest Gump of soul music for the last 20 years, packing a resume which reads like a who's who of the jazz/funk/soul recording industry. His contribution to the colloquium of cool cannot be overstated; adding flame to James Brown, flavor to Bootsy Collins, and soul-power to George Clinton.
