Slave's debut album, "The Concept," showcases a tight, horn-driven funk sound with a disco pulse. The group's complex arrangements and jazz-influenced solos set them apart in the genre.

Dayton, Ohio funk outfit Slave scored a string of R&B and disco hits in the late 1970s and early 1980s. "The Concept" was their debut album, released as disco was nearing its peak.
