The debut release on Nathan Davis' own Tomorrow International label, If remains the funkiest, hardest-driving of the saxophonist's LPs; some distance removed from his previous MPS and Polydor dates, the record boasts a streamlined approach that perfectly serves its relentless grooves: every note and beat means something, and each speaks volumes.
