Quincy Jones - You've Got It Bad Girl | Vinyl LP - 1973 Japanese A&M (AML-350, King Record Co. Ltd.)

Quincy Jones released You've Got It Bad Girl in October 1973. It sits between the orchestral jazz of his 1960s output and the full-commitment funk of Body Heat (1974), a transitional record that draws on both worlds without fully settling into either. The "Tribute to A.F.-Ro'" medley on Side A pairs Aretha Franklin's "Daydreaming" with Ewan MacColl's "First Time Ever I Saw Your Face," Valerie Simpson singing both, strings and woodwinds given the kind of arrangement Jones had been building in Hollywood for a decade. "Love Theme from The Getaway" is a Jones original from the Sam Peckinpah film, Toots Thielemans's harmonica prominent and unhurried. The title track, written by Yvonne Wright for Stevie Wonder's Talking Book, has Jones himself at the microphone over Chuck Rainey's bass and Dave Grusin's Rhodes. "Summer in the City" opens the record as an instrumental, the Lovin' Spoonful piece stripped back and re-orchestrated.

Side B leans harder. "Superstition" brings Bill Withers, Billy Preston and Stevie Wonder together under the "Three Beautiful Brothers" credit, the original's funk architecture rebuilt around Jones's arrangement. "Manteca," the 1947 Gillespie-Fuller-Chano Pozo piece, runs nearly nine minutes and is the most adventurous track on the record. "Sanford and Son Theme (The Streetbeater)," written by Jones for the NBC sitcom, closes out the main programme. "Chump Change," co-written with Bill Cosby, had already appeared as the theme for The New Bill Cosby Show in 1972. Produced by Jones and Ray Brown. This is the 1973 Japanese A&M pressing, manufactured by King Record Co. Ltd.
