In the 70s, we didn't categorize the music. If we could dance to it, it sounded good, was funky, musicians were on point, singers were singing, that's all that was required.

Exactly right. Categorization is mainly done for commercial reasons, but I increasingly believe that you can at most say that there is music for different purposes, without attaching all kinds of labels to it.

Song is 46 years old and still in the Coolness Hall of Fame. Indescribable how good this song makes me feel. I just know I'm in the wind when I hear it. That intro, that bass, the bongos, the drums and then Lonnie on that synth, then that voice "Expand Your MInd..." A song about love and peace and the brotherhood of man, ending with that plea "Expand Your MInd. Expand Your Mind." Masterpiece, Master Peace, To Everyone Joy and Peace.

Lonnie is a Richmond, Virginia native along with his brothers Donald & Ray. Their father, Lonnie, Sr. sang with the legendary gospel group, "The Harmonizing Four". Donald is featured here on vocals and is also a accomplished pianist and flutist. Ray is the last original member of the "Jarmels" who made the song "A Little Bit of Soap". Just a bit of history from a homer.

The Paradise Garage! My uncle would tell me stories about that place. He said you didn't start heading there (we're from Brooklyn) until about 1am and wouldn't leave til about 7:30am! Now that's clubbin! He said people who wanted to see stars went to Studio 54...the real dancers partied at The Garage!

Iike how Lonnie started out at the beginning of the song with that funky keyboard sound and then just just laid back in the background but you can still here him in the background doing his thing he just lets the other musicians shine and showing their talents then at somewhere at 2:50 or 2:51 he cuts loose on his keyboard 🎹 again but never overshadowing the other musicians this is pure raw talent no doubt about it

I was a freshman in college when I first heard this and it stayed with me all these years as perhaps the coolest soul stirring song ever. Certainly was part of my introduction to jazz during those glorious NYC WRVR 106.7 jazz radio days.

I'm now 67 and was listening to this back in my early youth. What drives this is basically the bass line which almost stays the same throughout along with the keyboards and Idris's vocals. Back then this did hit the number1 spot for best jazzfunk track and in one suvey it was pipped off the top by the crusaders "Put it where you want it". Still a timeless classic and I'm still playing it. Many thanks for the upload.
