Originally released in 1977, “A Blow For Me, A Toot For You” put legendary trombonist Fred Wesley, sax player Maceo Parker and trumpet layer Rick Gardner front and centre. Backed by the cream of the P-Funk crew the album was sensational.
At this time the P-Funk collective was always in the studio laying down tracks for a multitude of bands that included Parliament, The Brides of Funkenstein and Parlet. The chemistry on all these classic recordings is evident and “A Blow For Me, A Tot For You” is up there with albums like “Funk Or Walk” or “The Mothership Connection”.
