But does it hit the right notes or fall flat on its face?\n\nFrom the get-go, The Message grabs you by the ears and doesn't let go.

The Message is a testament to Clarke's enduring talent and ability to keep the funk alive in a world that desperately needs it.\n\nSo, if you're looking for a fun, funky, and fresh album to liven up your music collection, look no further than The Stanley Clarke Band's The Message.
