Description:
Donald Byrd - Places And Spaces (BN Classic) PBTHAL (1975 - Jazz) [Flac 24-96 LP]
Places and Spaces Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine
Reuniting with Larry Mizell, the man behind his last three LPs, Donald Byrd continues to explore
contemporary soul, funk, and R&B with Places and Spaces.
In fact, the record sounds more urban than its predecessor, which often played like a Hollywood
version of the inner city.
Keeping the Isaac Hayes, Curtis Mayfield, and Sly Stone influences of Street Lady, Places and
Spaces adds elements of Marvin Gaye, Earth, Wind & Fire, and Stevie Wonder, which immediately
makes the album funkier and more soulful.
Boasting sweeping string arrangements, sultry rhythm guitars, rubbery bass, murmuring flügelhorns,
and punchy horn charts, the music falls halfway between the cinematic neo-funk of Street Lady and
the proto-disco soul of Earth, Wind & Fire.
Also, the title Places and Spaces does mean something -- there are more open spaces within the music,
which automatically makes it funkier.
Of course, it also means that there isn't much of interest on Places and Spaces for jazz purists,
but the album would appeal to most fans of Philly soul, lite funk, and proto-disco.
