Investigation No.1

Investigation No. 1 is an obscure but compelling example of early1970s experimental jazz-funk, blending spiritual jazz, funk rhythms, and Afrocentric consciousness. The album reflects the era’s interest in using groove-based music as a vehicle for both social expression and musical exploration. Musically, Investigation No.1 sits at the crossroads of raw funk energy and exploratory jazz improvisation. Ther album also features a strong sense of community and purpose, namely with the broader Black liberation movements of the time. This vinyl edition is the first after 22 years and the first European ever.
