A. "Chicago" (7" mix)
B. "DC City"
Iconic jazz funk hero Roy Ayers has been sampled as much as anyone out there and few tunes have been in the spotlight as much as his 'Chicago.' For the first ever time here it gets its own 7" pressing. It's a track that oozes cool late night funk - the cute Rhodes, the spoken word samples and funky bass riffs all manage to be warm and seductive but also hint at a little menace. Things get more sentimental on 'DC City' (offered up here as a special extended 7" mix) with the breezy vocals and ad libs, the cosmic synth work and textbook Roy Ayers funk all being as inviting as you like.
