This evolution took a major leap forward with the 1973 recording of In the Groove. Highlighting jazz’s sharpness, blending in the edge of rock, and injecting the elasticity of funk, the result is a sound that cannot be easily categorized as jazz-rock, jazz-funk, or fusion. It’s a sophisticated, powerful, and simply 'cool' piece of music. This album has also been seen as a direct response to The Crusaders, whom Jiro Inagaki had been paying close attention to at the time. The approach hit the mark—Soul Media captured a 'refined Black feeling' here, paving the way for their final destination: 'Funky Stuff'.\" - Nippon Columbia\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eclear yellow colored vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ehigh-quality Japan import\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003elimited edition\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eincludes obi strip + printed insert\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eoriginal release year: 1973\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003emusic label: Nippon Columbia 2025\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Jiro Inagaki \u0026 Soul Media","offers":[{"title":"Vinyl LP","offer_id":41884263710810,"sku":"fr-5291","price":49.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0105\/4542\/files\/jiroinagaki-inthegroove-coloredvinyl-1.jpg?v=1756300564","url":"https:\/\/www.turntablelab.sbs\/products\/jiro-inagaki-soul-media-in-the-groove-japan-import-yellow-colored-vinyl-vinyl-lp","provider":"turntablelab.sbs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
