    I feel you on this point. The song that comes most readily to mind is that Phil Asher track on Co-Operation. I like most of his output, but I feel like he just dug through his vault for this song. No progression or groove, just minutes upon minutes of the same beat. In fact, I was rather disappointed in the whole Co-Op cd. There are some nice tracks on there, but I think I was led to expect a classic.

    Same thing with New Sector Movements LP. I may post my comments on this later today, but it's hardly the "21st century soul classic" that it's hyped to be. IG needs to get with a lyricist because his words do not match his beats. And Frank McComb (?) needs to lose his Stevie Wonder infatuation.
