A cosmic cornerstone of ’70s spiritual jazz‑funk, Cosmic Funk finds Lonnie Liston Smith pushing deeper into celestial grooves, meditative textures and Afro‑futurist rhythm. Originally released in 1974, the album blends electric keys, hypnotic percussion and soaring flute/sax lines, creating a sound that bridges free‑thinking jazz with soulful, cosmic uplift.

This 2022 BGP / Flying Dutchman reissue (HIQLP‑088) restores the album with warm, analogue‑styled clarity — a perfect companion to Expansions and an essential piece of the Cosmic Echoes universe.
