Cosmic Vortex (Lp)

After two visionary LPs for his own tiny Nodlew label, Weldon Irvine
signed to RCA for "Cosmic Vortex (Justice Divine)", exploring the deeply
spiritual and political terrain of his previous efforts on the kind of
grand musical scale that major-label funding accommodates. This is a
big, bold record by any measure, with a startlingly pronounced focus on
lyrics and vocals. At the same time, however, the melodies spread out
like tentacles, informed by the improvisational sensibilities of jazz
and the deep-groove spirit of funk.
