Their 1994 debut \"Cool and Steady and Easy\" memorably covered Pharoah Sanders' \"The Creator Has a Master Plan\" and featured Tony Allen on drums. \"Black Butterfly\" is their eighth album, out three days ago on Dorado, with vocals from Alison Limerick, Ebba Åsman, and Desmond Foster.\n\nhttps://brooklynfunkessentials.bandcamp.com/album/black-butterfly \nhttp://www.brooklynfunkessentials.com/", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }
