Stefon lays down the funk

I was surprised that more vibes players don't know about this excellent Charlie Hunter album from 1998 called Return of the Candyman. It's a trio date with Stefon Harris on vibes, drums, and Charlie playing his 8-string guitar/bass instrument. I haven't heard everything Stefon has recorded, but so far I find this to be the funkiest.

This is their version of the Steve Miller Band hit "Fly Like An Eagle."
