Lonnie Smith - Afrodesia (1975)

Lonnie Smith - Afrodesia 1977
 
  Lonnie Smith (not to be confused with Lonnie Liston Smith who also played the organ) released a number of very cool funk -jazz albums of few of which remain on my top list of this genre to this day!  Afrodesia is a very groooooovy album that still carries a lot of jazz influences and surprisingly is less keyboard dominated than his other albums in this genre.   But having said that there is still lots of great keyboard work along with some great jazz fusion-soul instrumentation.
