Unfortunately Inspiration Information is not available on Itunes so we have added Shuggies Boogie : Shuggie Otis plays The Blues.

Shuggie Otis(son of legendary balladeer Johnny) is quite simply a musical genius.Of the first order.A brillant,imagantive one-man band who ranks up there with Stevie Wonder,Prince,and the late,great Curtis Mayfield.But sadly didn't.Unfourtnaly,Shuggie never achieved the great feats that those greats attained.
And even sadder,his visionary second album,"Insprition Infomation",was his swan song.

And that's sad because "Information Infomation" is a lost treasure.This album is just amazing-to put simply.
The joyous pyschedelic opener title track drags you in but it's the beautiful "Island Letter" that's truly sucks you in.With it's gorgeous string arrangment and it's overall subtley.(Digatble Planets sampled this song on their 1994 album "Blowout Comb")
"Sparke City"-one of my favorites-is even better.Beginning with a jazzy funk interlude then sliding into Shuggie's mellow,soulful vocals.This song could pass for something off Miles Davis' "Bitches Brew" if you ask me.
The reflective,hippy-cool drum-machine meditation "Aht Uh Mi Hed"
highlights Shuggie's warm,breezy vocals even more and the song has much emotion with it's simplictity.
The truncated hippy funk of "Happy House" ends off "Insprition Infomation" vocals side right.

After we emerge into four visionary instruments.
The beautifully arranged,moody "Rainy Day" and the pre-techno
expeirment "XL-30" wouldn't sound out of place on Radiohead's
"Kid A" album.The slow,ambient-like pace of "Pling!" is so lush and at ease.The strings-blessed funk of "Not Availble" is the closing evidence to the fact that not only is Shuggie brillant but that even when his music has no words,it's saying a lot.
