Underrated treasure

ben917

Bernie Worrell, best known for P-Funk, but also of Talking Heads' later period, teams up with the best producer working in hip hop for the last 20 years running.

The funk keyboard wizard played on several if not all of these tracks. Oh, and this is a project by Prince Paul and Don Newkirk. Read more here if you like. http://remixmag.com/artists/electronic/baby_elephant_paul_newkirk/index.html

They Say All Music Guide

As its wackadoo title signals, Turn My Teeth Up! isn’t the kind of record you put on to get in touch with your tender side; if you’re not in the mood to summon your inner funkateer, don’t bother cracking the jewel case. If, however, you’re familiar with the oddball genius of Prince Paul, late of Handsome Boy Modeling School, and you also happen to be up for his highly eccentric brand of musical lollygagging, the debut effort by his new outfit Baby Elephant will almost surely make your day. These funky fresh and occasionally ferocious tracks, on which the onetime P-Funk and Talking Heads keyboard player Bernie Worrell does his thing, captivate with their left-field energy (check out Nona Hendryx on “Crack Addicts In Love”) and consistently amuse (check out the handful of wobble-headed skits). Contributions from old-school avant-lovers such as Yellowman, George Clinton and David Byrne wrap this music in a ’70s vibe — overall, it’s a weird-artist treasury with as much bite as the title would have you believe. – Tammy La Gorce
