Maceo Parker doesn't play funk, he IS funk! Inseparable from the Godfather James Brown who he accompanied for years but also having worked as George Clinton’s accomplice in Parliament and P-Funk, it seems like Maceo Parker will be blowing down his saxophone right up to his very last breath! At the age of 77, the legend from North Carolina is still making music, revealing here his first album in eight years. An album recorded with signature sticky sound of the “Big Easy”. It was there, in New Orleans, that Maceo took his funk to create Soul Food: Cooking with Maceo produced by Eli Wolf. With the help of Ivan Neville, Nikki Glaspie and Tony Hall, he revisits local standards signed by Dr. John (Right Place, Wrong Time), The Meters (Just Kissed My Baby) and Allen Toussaint (Yes, We Can Can). Other covers of songs by Aretha Franklin (Rock Steady), Prince ( The Other Side of the Pillow) and David “Fathead” Newman (Hard Times) complete a rather conventional yet incredibly sincere and warm album. A true fusion of his style with the funk of the bayou. © Max Dembo/Qobuz
