the joint to get is reids "rhythmatism," an album of masterful soul jazz from the mid-70s. reid released a follow-up 30 years later called "spirit walk" thats also really good.

i like four tet, and although he lets a lot of shit slide, i knew he probably only let that stuff see the light of day cause he was working with a legend
