I just found out that there will be a Funk Jazz Kafe at the new house of blues
tonight in Atlanta if you are here for the Olympics. The guests artists will
be Groove Theory, Joi, Tony Rich, and some others of the Dallas Rowdy
clan. It starts at 9 tonight.
I have found two compilations on Irma Motto Jazz out of Italy that I can't stop
playing. The "Groovy: a collection of rare jazzy club tracks" outdoes the
MasterCuts series because of the mix of the type of music. There are latin,
soul, jazz, lounge cuts. It is rare that I like every single song on a
compilation, but this one is right on.
The track list is:
IRMA 484128-2
Milt Jackson - The Metal Mether
Patti Austin - That's Enough for Me
The Aquarians - Bayu Bayu
Liza Minnelli - Use Me (Yes! The Bill Withers classic. Everyone was soul in
the seventies even Liza Minnelli.)
24 Carat Black - 24 Carat Black
Claudio Roditi - Snow Samba
Deodato - Superstrut
Esther Phillips - Home is where the Hatred is (The is my favorite song on
this compilation. She does Gil Scott Heron justice.)
Bob Scaggs - Hercules
Baricentro - Afka
Asha Puthli - Right Down Here
Webster Lewis - El Bobo
Nancy Ames - Carcara
Steve Stills & Al Kooper - Season of the Witch (Now I know where the Pharcyde
got one of those samples.)
The other compilation is Jungle Jazz (IRMA 484242-2)
The only song I could have done without is the Outside song.
Wax Doctor - Atmospheric Funk
Roni Size - It's a Jazzy Thing
Jonny L - This Time
Alex Reece - Pulp Fiction
Photek - The Rain
Ohm Guru - Tokio Station meditation remix
Kid Loops - Back to the lab
Zion Spirit - Demons at play
Hidden Agenda - Is it love?
Outside - The Big 'F' Reunion
Typhorns - Private Eden
Ballistic Brothers - Come on simon templar remix
Bubble Jet - Emotionelectric
D-Note - Flesh and Blood
