Sam & The Soul Machine’s Po’k Bones & Rice brings to light the legendary group thought of as the missing link between The Meters and the Neville Brothers. This reissue contains material recorded at Cosimo Matassa’s legendary Camp Street studio in 1969, featuring group members Gary Brown on sax and Sam Henry on keyboards, with guest appearances by the likes of the Meters’ “Zigaboo” Modeliste. This album is augmented by early 70s tracks by Sam Henry as a soloist, whose combination of the funky and the svelte is no less than Allen Toussaint-esque (really). This Soul Machine album was thought to have been suppressed by the Alain Toussaint / Marshall Seahorn axis as too competitive to the music they controlled, and it features extraordinary compositional entities, breakbeats, and samples of critical value to DJs.
Rough and ready -- and a perfect slice of deep deep funk! -DUSTY GROOVE

P’ok Bones and Rice is of the slickest slabs of vintage New Orleans funk that you’re likely to ever come across...This is absolutely essential funk.
