- Biography by AMG: After scoring success on both the pop and R&B charts in 1972 with It's Just Begun, the Jimmy Castor Bunch knocked out another album in the same vein before the year ended. Phase Two adheres closely to the previous album's formula, right down to using an orchestral instrumental for its intro and epilogue. As a result, parts of it feel like a re-tread: the standout example of this problem is "Luther the Anthropoid (Ape Man)," which sports a nice groove but is a merely a thinly veiled rewrite of "Troglodyte."
The Jimmy Castor Bunch in the 1970s, and also as a solo artist, he has released several successful albums and singles, some of which have been heavily sampled in films and in hip-hop. In particular, the saxophone hook and groove from "It's Just Begun" and the spoken word intro and groove from "Troglodyte" have been sampled extensively.
The Jimmy Castor Bunch put it all together. From "Prologue" to "Epilogue" the power of funky soul expands the listening horizon to all. "It's just Begun" captures the "now," explores the future and revisits the past. "Psyche" is a myriad of mood, melody and pure mystery.
A MUST HAVE ALBUM!!!
