Richard “Groove” Holmes “Six Million Dollar Man” (1975) Flying Dutchman Records Arrangements by Oliver Nelson. 300 lps of funky organ jazz from the big man behind the B3!
One of Groove Holmes’ best albums of the 70s — thanks to some electric blacksploitation arrangements from the great Oliver Nelson! The format’s a bit tighter here than on some of Holmes’ Groove Merchant albums from the earlier part of the decade — an approach that’s almost like soundtrack scoring at times, but which allows Groove to stretch out a bit more on the solos, and take things way past the already-funky head arrangements penned by Nelson. Mike Wofford’s also on the record, throwing in some great electric piano and Arp in underneath Holmes’ own funky Hammond — and other players include Tom Scott, David T Walker, and Oscar Brashear — who all contribute nicely to the record. Titles include “Disc-o-Mite”, “Salsa de Alma”, “Dumpy Mama”, “Mama’s Groove”, “125th & 7th Ave”, and “Six Million Dollar Man”, the theme from the TV show! © 1996-2010, Dusty Groove America, Inc.

A double-sided Hopalong Cassidy ep – “The Story of Topper” and “Hoppy’s Happy Birthday” Starring William Boyd. Bozo Approved Capitol Records. Nice old-timey children’s illustrations here. This looks like an early 50’s release to me. Hopalong was before my time. Neal Cassady was more my speed. But that’s a whole other kinda “hopped up”.

Jimmy Cliff “Struggling Man” (1973) Jimmy’s follow-up to one of the greatest records ever “The Harder They Come”. Not as celebrated musically, but the cover is pretty damn cool. Cliff is one of the 2010 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductees.
