[QUOTE=Screen13;1292529]The next was E Pluribus Funk, with a VERY classy cover! Some might say that was a rebound album with "Footstompin' Music" and "Upsetter" being the singles. This was the time when they fired Knight as their Manager.
Then came Phoenix (Knight is no longer the manager, a keyboardist is brought in, updated sound...rising like a phoenix, perhaps?).[/QUOTE
Yes sorry I skipped the E Pluribus one. Sadly the Phoenix should have stayed grounded in my opinion until they regrouped and recaptured their original sound.
Just my opinion and perhaps in the long run their choice to mix it up a bit with more members in the band and a different sound may have actually endeared them to a new audience...........
