Locksmith’s only album, ‘Unlock The Funk’ was produced by Harvey Mason and features a lot of the heavy boogie-funk groove that Mason himself released. Locksmith’s line up included members of Grover Washington’s backing and musically the album demonstrates the tight, deft instrumentation that earned them the gig. ‘TMI’, ‘Unlock The Funk’ and ‘Far Beyond’ are funky standouts as is the fast dancer ‘Black Jack’ which was huge at the time, whilst the mid tempo soul track ‘It’s You’ is a nice stepper with vocals from Stephanie Spruill. Timely release.
