Description

2003 reissue - This is the first full-length LP and CD re-issue for Tommy Stewarts self-titled tough-to- find album. It's a legend amongst collectors and DJs for the party anthem "Bump And Hustle Music." That tune appears on many play lists because it is on so many bootlegs and compilations. Featuring a killer vocal hook by Hot Buttered Soul (Isaac Hayes backing singers) it's a little known fact that this track almost did not appear on the original record, it was only an afterthought put to tape last minute when the band thought they were a track short.

Recording began in Atlanta, Georgia at Sound Pit Recording Studios, and was finished in Memphis, Tennessee in 1976. This was the latter end of the rare groove era, which is reflected in the combination of funk with early disco style production. In fact, Stewart is often labeled as the innovator of disco-funk because of this album and his production on releases like Southside Connection and Sil Austin. In addition to "Bump and Hustle Music" tracks like "Riding High" and "The Fulton County Line" qualify the album as a classic and one that sits pretty next to the likes of releases by The Headhunters, Roy Ayers, and the Mighty Ryeders.
