Recorded in Ike's free time while touring with Tina, this album is a departure from the style typical of his more popular compositions in favor of a more straightforward funk. And it slays. Arguably one of the best funk instrumental albums of the time, and a brilliant example of the man's genius. Turner played guitar and piano on the album, the other instruments helmed by The Kings of Rhythm who are, to me at least, unknown musicians. Billy Preston steps in on the keys for the track "Getting Nasty."
I Like Ike
