Slow Traffic To The Right (Verve By Request)

Released in 1977, Bennie Maupin's second album as a leader, and first for Mercury puts his time as part of the Headhunters on full display.

The album as a whole is a satisfying blend of funk and darker textured moments supported by a solid band including Patrice Rushen, Paul Jackson, Eddie Henderson and more.

This Verve By Request title is pressed on 180-gram vinyl at Third Man in Detroit.
