1978 UK 10-track vinyl LP, a bizarre benefit album by Michael Cassidy and Jeffrey Armstrong, drawing on influences as diverse as Neil Diamond and Alice Coltrane, well worth getting for 'Protoplasmic Crud' alone!.

OK, so "Busy Making Progress" is some kind of Hare Krishna thing? Which I assume they gave out for free, or next to nothing, hence why it's so commonly found in bargain bins? Like this one:

it's exactly the same guy that was behind that one - michael cassidy. i did actually take a punt on one that years ago due to a shoutout to john fahey on the back! i don't remember enjoying it much though

Given their 70s (disco) influences, we can safely assume Phats & Small named their album Now Phats What I Small Music as a homage to 70s album titles

The AllMusic review by Richard S. Ginell stated, "Dave Liebman plunges headlong into funk in the wake of Herbie Hancock's Head Hunters, but his heart doesn't seem to be in it. At times, he sounds bored playing R&B riffs that he seemed to have outgrown at the time, lapsing into free jazz flurries in an effort to stay interested, and the rhythm section is leaden."[4]
When your heart's not in the funk, you get lead.
