Album Description
Dennis Coffey is an American guitarist, notable as a prominent studio musician for many Soul and R&B recordings. Coffey recorded 'Scorpio' which was a million selling single and in 1972 'Taurus', both with The Detroit Guitar Band. Since then, he has recorded several solo albums. In the early '70s, Dennis Coffey, Motown ''Funk Brother'' and super-session guitar man, seemed determined to write soundtracks even if he wasn't commissioned by a Hollywood studio. Indeed, the four studio albums he cut for the Sussex label between 1971 and 1974, from which this compilation is culled, are like a big personal advertisement for potential film score work. Coffey's raw, compressed guitar style - his Big City Breakbeat Funk - certainly evokes a tough, urban landscape inhabited by tough, urban gangsters.
