Donald Byrd - Ethiopian Knights - Full Album (1972)


Playing Next: The Barleycorn - Live At The Embankment (1972) Full Album Irish Rebel


One of jazz's true individualists, Donald Byrd only copied Miles Davis twice. Once in 1970 Electric Byrd, and here. Byrd's breezy, melodic funk was anti-matter to Miles' The Complete On the Corner Sessions, full of dark nuance from the Dark Magus. On Ethiopian Knights, Byrds streches and improvises on tough grooves.
