Late for the Future is the third studio album by the band Galactic, released in 2000. [4] [5]
The album reached No. 4 on the Billboard Top Contemporary Jazz Albums chart and No. 5 on the Billboard Top Jazz Albums chart. [6] [7]
The album was recorded at Kingsway Studios, in New Orleans, and was produced by Nick Sansano. [8]
Exclaim! wrote that the band "revitalise funk with such passionate playing that they invoke the genre's classic glory days of yesteryear." [9] CMJ New Music Report deemed the album "addictive swamp funk and soul." [10] Bass Player thought that "Galactic's New Orleans R&B sound has grown tougher—they're elbowing through a crowd rather than ambling down the street." [11]
