Just wondering if anyone has bought/heard the album "Nu Blaxploitation"
by Donald Byron. I saw it in the store and it really gave me a good
vibe, but I didn't get it since I've been burned on my last few "blind
buys"
Anyway, info sharing is part of what's this place is about right?
If anyone has heard Mushroom Jazz 2, also give us some deep reviews!
BTW, one CD which I heard at Tower records Listening Station was by this
French duo - Les Nubienes. The album is almost entirely french and has
a smooth yet eccletic mix of jazz. Their label's A&R tries to make some
lame comparisons of their music to the likes of Wyclef Jean. Clearly,
they can be considered like a French version of Zhane yet more on the
fringe with some drum/n/bass, african, and r&b like cuts. Did I buy it?
Almost, but I still recommend it (Song#4 'Makeda' is still flowin
through my head) I believe you can hear cuts at www.towerrecords.com or
just pop in and hear the album yourself.
Keep up with the comments!
