The Crusaders "Carnival of the Night"


Thought I'd highlight The Crusaders again and one of their best songs.  This is "Carnival of the Night" from the "Street Life" album, released in 1979.  The title track from this album is probably their best known song.  But, "Carnival of the Night" as explained in a post about them from months back, also stands up very well.  The groove is a hot one and Larry Carlton's solo is equally fiery.  Not to mention of course, the rest of the band (Sample, Felder, Henderson and Hooper), turning in a stirring performance on keys, tenor sax, trombone and drums, respectively.  Dig this!
