The Blackbyrds (debut album)

Donald Byrd's students produced a classic album bringing together the funk they loved with the jazz Vyrd had been teaching them - result; stone cold classic & sampling goldmine

Standout tracks:

Funky Junkie - slow grinding funk groove (and Prof DJ funk save)
Do it fluid - much covered funky classic
